BAY MINETTE, Alabama Emily’s Closet free prom boutique has been extended another Saturday before Prom. Come shop and find your prom or pageant gown this Saturday, March 6 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at First Presbyterian Church in Bay Minette. This event, sponsored by the Heritage Junior Women s Club, is open to all high school girls in Baldwin County who are in need of a prom dress.
HJWC has given away hundreds of dresses since launching the program more than a decade ago. The women’s organization founded Emily’s Closet in 2008 to honor the memory of Emily Rose Parker, a Bay Minette teenager who was killed in an automobile accident in 2003 – just before the start of her senior year at Baldwin County High School.
