Any ideas for a grad/going away party?

Question

My younger sister graduated high school and is going away to study in another state, so this coming saturday is going to be her graduation and goodbye party. We have alot of things ready, like food, cake, music, a photo/memories table, a candy table, and a volleyball net, but my sister and I are worried that this wont be enough for our guests. We are having about 60-70 people- adults and children, and of course some of her friends.

Alot of her friends had crazy things at their parites, like a bounce room, a slurpee machine, coney dog machine . . . .etc, things that we find kinda ridiculous and not in out budget. Is there anythign we can do or add that will make this party better? or do you think its ok?

Answer 1

It might be okay as is.  If you do want to do a little more, how about setting up like a bunch of those fun sprinklers/water slides/baby pools and tell everyone to bring a swim suit.  All those things are on sale right now at the drug stores and Wal-Mart because summer is almost over.  So you could get a lot of that stuff for cheap.
