Code of Conduct
• Our prom will be chaperoned by prom committee parents and security personnel, as well as Cypress Manor management. Only ticket holders will be permitted to enter the venue. Parents of prom guests may drop off their children at the venue door, or may stay and take pictures outside the venue until check-in. Venue doors will open at 6:00 PM, and guests may begin checking in at this time.
• Registration to this event constitutes direct and implicit agreement by all prom guests and their parents/guardians to abide by all policies & guidelines specified and stipulated on this website, trianglehomeschoolprom.com
• Once guests have checked in, they will not be permitted to leave the venue premises without forfeiting their admission tickets. In case a guest needs to retrieve a forgotten item from their car, the guest will be accompanied by security personnel to and from the car, and must promptly re-enter the venue. No loitering of any kind is permitted in the parking lot or on the venue grounds during the event. If guests choose to leave the venue early, they will not be permitted to return to the event or to Cypress Manor property. Tickets will thus be considered void, and guests will not be allowed to loiter on the property.
• Mature, respectful conduct is expected of all prom guests. Inappropriate/explicit behavior, or behavior that is deemed to be dangerous to property, self, or others will not be tolerated. THP committee members, security personnel, and Cypress Manor management reserve all rights to define and determine what is considered non-compliant behavior and actions.
• Absolutely NO alcohol, weapons, tobacco in any form, vaping devices or liquids, or drugs of any dangerous or illegal nature are permitted on Cypress Manor property. Violation of this policy will result in immediate expulsion from the event and nullification of all ticket holder privileges.
• Ticket reimbursements will not be issued if a prom guest is asked to leave for any violations of Triangle Homeschool Prom policies and guidelines.
Special Requests
Dinner Table Reservations
A table of 8 - 10 guests can be reserved following these directions:
1) The group appoints one person as the designated "Contact Person" for the table.
2) The Contact Person emails the names of all 8 - 10 guests to the Prom Committee at trianglehomeschoolprom@gmail.com
3) The Contact Person will receive a confirmation email and number once all requested guests are confirmed as registered & paid.
* Please do not email a request unless all requested guests have already registered & paid.
• Because of space restrictions, only 4 reserved tables of 8 or 9 guests will be allowed. All other reserved tables must have 10 guests.

We cannot, however, guarantee that we can honor all song requests -- the final selections will be made by prom committee members and our DJ.

ABOUT US: Triangle Homeschool Prom began 14 years ago as TCC Homeschool Prom (TCC = Triangle Community Church, in Apex). Organized by a group of TCC homeschool parents, the annual TCC Prom sought to serve the homeschool community of southwest Wake County. While we are incredibly thankful and blessed to have been able to host the prom at TCC for so many years, we as prom organizers have felt the need in recent years to expand our outreach to the Wake County homeschool community by first renaming our prom in 2018 to Triangle Homeschool Prom, in order to better reflect the broader homeschool community in our area. Secondly, we hoped to expand the capacity of our prom by relocating to a larger venue that is centrally located in the southern Wake County area. We are thrilled to announce that we found just the right venue: Cypress Manor at Cary! Recently renovated as one of the premier wedding & event venues in the Cary/Raleigh area, Cypress Manor is both beautiful and spacious, inside and out. Prom guests will be able to dine, dance and mingle in the elegant, climate-controlled, multi-level interior complete with two custom bar areas and a large dance floor with a stage backdrop. Click here to see more pictures and take a 360° virtual tour.
FIND US: Cypress Manor is conveniently accessible to US Highway 1 and I-40/440 Beltline. Once you are on Buck Jones Road, Cypress Manor is located close to the overpass over I-40, near the intersection of Nottingham Drive and Buck Jones Road. The venue is located on a downslope and is not easily visible from the road. Cypress Manor's parking lot is adjacent to that of Jellybeans Skate Center. There is ample parking, and guests can easily park and walk right into the venue. For after-prom activities, the area surrounding Cypress Manor offers plenty of fun opportunities just around the corner: late-night bowling at AMF South Hills Lanes, and late-night dining at Gypsy's Shiny Diner, Cook-Out Burgers, and a 24-Hour McDonald's at Crossroads Plaza.
