The 2009 Northwest homecoming parade took place on Saturday, the 24th of October.
The first time I heard about the Homecoming dance being on Halloween, I thought, ‘OK, this could turn out to be a lot of fun.’ But then I heard the not-so-exciting news. No costumes…
Staring at a football schedule for the 2009 season, the administration realized they had a difficulty: Homecoming. Only three weekends were possibilities for the game and dance to occur, and all of them were problematic.
Following tradition, the homecoming queen will be announced at the football game on Friday, Oct. 30. The homecoming king will be announced at the dance on Saturday, Oct. 31.
