Culver Academy Graduation Photos: Officer’s Figure

Last Saturday, Culver Aacdemies held the annual Final Ball and Officer’s Figure. When asked about Officer’s Figure, I tell everyone that need to see it at least once because it’s not like anything you’ll see at a typical prom. It’s not just cool. It’s a tradition at Culver. I’m sure that the cadets don’t get as excited about it as someone like me, but, as you can tell from the photos, their dates and mothers enjoy being a part of it.

Following are some photos from the event. There are more photos posted on the www.culverphotos.com website. I seperated the galleries into the photos of cadets with their dates (http://www.culverphotos.com/6_5_10_officersfigure_dates) and the photos of cadets with their mothers (http://www.culverphotos.com/6_5_10_officers_figure).

Culver Academy Graduation Photos: Final Ball- Outside

Before and after the CGA Senior Waltz and Officer’s Figure, I shot several kids and families outside of the gym. For the Culver students, mingling and carrying on with their friends outside has before a tradition and integral part of Final Ball. It is a lot of fun to be around, as there are hundreds of students and mothers in beautiful gowns along with their male counterparts in Dress As and suits. Everyone always looks very sharp.

I’ve posted a few photos here. Other are at:

Please note that photos from the Officer’s Figure and Senior Waltz are not in this gallery. There are three galleries that contain these photos: “CGA Senior Waltz,” “Officer’s Figure- Mothers,” and “Officer’s Figure- Dates,” all of which can be found in the Graduation gallery at http://www.culverphotos.com/2010grad.

Culver Academy Graduation Photos: CGA Senior Waltz

As part of the Culver Academy Graduation Ceremonies and the Final Ball held last Saturday, is the CGA Senior Waltz. This is a dance where the senior girls dance with their dads or, in some cases, their grand dads. It is really fun to watch as everyone seems to have a great time.

I’ve posted some photos here. There are many more located at http://www.culverphotos.com/2010seniorwaltz.
