Silver Spring, MD - (WomenPR.com) On April 19, 2009, the  Hilton hotel  in Silver Spring, Maryland will host Ciao Bella Prom 2009. The event sponsored by St. Anthony's Bridal offers free prom dresses to area high school seniors who are unable to afford the costs associated with promo attendance. Ciao Bella Prom 2009 will provide high school seniors with the opportunity to enjoy their special night of looking fabulous and feeling beautiful without the financial burden often associated with such a night.

This much anticipated event will hold three sessions serving 70 students each for a total projected attendance of 210 students: the first session will run from 10 am to 11:00 am, the second session from 11:00 am to noon, and the third session will run from 12:45 pm to 2 pm.

Students will be registered according to their geographic area on a first-come, first-serve basis with 53 spaces each reserved for  Montgomery County, Prince Georges County, and the District of Columbia students and 51 spaces reserved for Fairfax County students.  Reserved spaces which have not been claimed by April 11, 2009 will be released to wait-listed students
