The Eldred Community Center will be hosting its third annual prom dress sale at the Kunkletown Thrift Store.

Hundreds of donated dresses will be featured. All prom dresses will be $10 each, with a limit of two dresses per person.

Men's suits will also be available for $5 each.

Some wedding gowns and mother of the bride dresses are also featured.

A wide variety of shoes, jewelry, shawls and handbags will also be available. Additionally, customers will have a chance to win free prizes with their purchase.

"Everyone who buys a dress is going to walk away with a prize. Customers will draw an Easter egg at the counter, and they can win shoes, jewelry or a shopping certificate to our thrift store. We have all kinds of goodies to hand out," said Shirley Krum, Eldred Community Center volunteer.

All proceeds from the prom sale will be used to upkeep and maintain the community center.

"It's to maintain the building — it goes right back into the community. All proceeds keep us going so we can keep doing good stuff," Krum said.

The thrift store is open to the public for normal hours from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. Donated goods are accepted until 2 p.m.

The prom sale will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at location 490 Kunkletown Road, Kunkletown.

SUPERIOR, Wis. – While nationwide it's a big concern, local prom and bridal dress shops are not necessarily facing the impact of the virus.

Local stores such as Angie's Close in Superior are experiencing good business amidst the illness. The business says it does not buy dresses from factories from China. Rather, it buys from locals on consignment.

"A lot of the materials are not what I take in the store, some of them are just not quality made so I really haven't seen an impact on my business as a whole right now," said Angie Kiminski, owner of Angie's Closet.

The American Bridal and Prom Industry Association states that about 80 percent of western style wedding dresses are made in China.
