A warm afternoon October 10 was hard on the thrown chocolate candies but the perfectly clear weather was ideal for a parade as Winnfield Senior High School prepared for Friday’s Homecoming game with its traditional parade down Main Street.

There was a police escort and plenty of sirens as the Tigers led the way on Fire Department engines, followed by more police and the WSHS marching band.  Then came the lovely young ladies of the Homecoming Court atop colorful convertibles.  Then there were plenty of floats and entries to stretch down Main Street.

Kids (and adults) gathered on both sides of the street, plastic shopping bags in hand, yelling over the noise in homes of receiving some candy throws.  And they were usually rewarded.

Following are some scenes from the parade.
