Few things besides the changing colors of the leaves and, more recently, pumpkin spice lattes, are more synonymous with early autumn than high school football season, and with it the timeless rites of passage of the homecoming parade, game, and concurrent fall festivities such as the memorable homecoming dance and the crowning of the local king and queen of the high school scene. The LI Advance has compiled, for your convenience, a list of all the homecoming games occurring at local districts, as well as any associated events and parades, which you may wish to attend or volunteer to participate in, as we welcome this cozy school- and community-spirited season.
South Country
Saturday, Oct. 22, there will be a parade at 11 a.m. followed by the big game at 2 p.m. at Bellport High School. The theme of the day will be the global and cosmopolitan-inspired “Cities of the World.”
William Floyd
Homecoming is scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 15. The festivities will kick off on Friday, Oct. 14, with a pep rally at the end of the school day, followed by the homecoming dance later that evening. On Saturday, Oct. 15, there will also be a parade held on campus with school and community groups beginning at the high school’s south lot and marching to the Lincoln Avenue Sports Complex. The parade lineup is scheduled for 12:30 p.m. in the south parking lot of the high school. Then the homecoming coronation will take place at 1:30 p.m. on the football field, followed by the game at 2:30 p.m. (against Ward Melville). The time-traveling theme for this year’s homecoming event is “Decades.”
