History

The city was incorporated as a community in 1898 with Black serving as the first mayor. In 1980, the graduating class made history by getting permission to dance at the prom.[http://www.oml.org/dbs/elmorecity/abdbz.cfm] Various citizens were featured on an anniversary edition of the 'Footloose' DVD, recounting the events that led to the change in city code that allowed students at Elmore City High School to hold their first prom. The plot of the 1984 movie, 'Footloose', is loosely based on events in Elmore City since dancing was banned for almost 100 years in this city. He served two terms. This ban was lifted in 1980.
