Free: Ulster County Dry Cleaner Implements ‘Give and Take’ Prom Dress Program

[wrrv.com – 2022.03.14] Royal Dry Cleaners, located in the New Paltz Plaza on Rt. 299, has rolled out a prom dress ‘Give and Take’ initiative to benefit those within the community who plan on attending a junior or senior prom.  They are asking local residents who have lightly used prom or cocktail dresses, or gowns (along with accessories and shoes) they no longer need, to donate them to the shop who will then clean and press the items free of charge.

They then invite those who are planning to attend a prom to come in and look for a dress, free of charge.  If the dress needs a bit of altering, Royal Dry Cleaners will have their tailor take care of that, also at no charge.

Residents are able to come in to drop off or take a look at dresses in the ‘prom shop’ Monday through Saturday between 11 AM and 5 PM, beginning Monday, March 14th and going right up until prom, or until they run out of dresses.
