Harvest Ball was our winter formal dance at New Haven High School, held on Tuesday, November 26th, 2019. It followed after the boys JV and Varsity basketball games and lasted from 9:30 pm to 11:30 pm.
The coronation of the king and queen was held between the boys JV and Varsity games. King and Queen of Harvest Ball were Dominic Lewis and Natalie Pecaut.
The students were asked about the difference between Winter Ball and Harvest Ball, and senior Dalyla Hurst said, “There was no difference-- Harvest Ball simply replaced Winter Ball. They were exactly the same, just different seasons and name.”
Senior Paige Remillard replied, “There was no difference. They just changed the name of the event and moved the date sooner, due to the fact that they were unsure of whether or not they were [going to] be able to do it in December because of snow days.”
Another question they were asked was what song was their favorite that was played that night.
Senior Natalie Pecaut said, “I Wanna Dance with Somebody.”
Senior Dalyla Hurst commented, “I didn't have a favorite-- there were a lot of good songs that were played.”
The final question they were asked was, did you enjoy Harvest Ball? If yes, why?
Senior Natalie Pecaut answered, “My favorite part about Harvest Ball was dancing with all the seniors there. Also getting crowned queen was pretty cool!”
Dominick Cox, a freshman, mentioned, “[The dance] was small but fun… because I was with all my friends.”
Sounds like everyone enjoyed Harvest Ball and had the time of their lives dancing the night away.
