Homecoming Activities

It is homecoming week here in our little corner of the world.  Today, the elementary and middle school kids traveled to the high school for a pep assembly, skits and crowning of the king and queen.  Oh, and we can’t forget the parade!

Rachel is just under the stop sign.  Cameron, of course, was on the opposite side and I couldn’t get a picture of him.  I’m counting on my friend Julie or my friend Christi to get me a picture of him!

At 4:30 the Cross Country team met at the middle school.  The MS Principal, Mrs. Glenn handed off the game football, and the XC team will run the ball all the way to the football field, which is about 13 miles away!  Cameron SAYS he’s running the whole way.  We’ll see.  They also have XC Parent’s night tonight (yeah…I get to hold onto their hot, sweaty smelly bodies and walk across the football field with them…ewwww….) and then they perform their full contest program for marching band at half time.  THEN…they come home and get a few hours sleep and catch a 6 am bus for Dubuque where they have State Marching Band Contest tomorrow.  Whew…what a weekend!

They decorate the school bus with their names.  The bus follows the XC runners to help keep them safe.
