Homecoming Parade

Tonight was the OCHS Homecoming parade. It goes down Linn Avenue, not far from the house, so we always go to watch and cheer the kids on. This year Mark stayed home, since he wasn't feeling so good, but Julia and I went to enjoy the show. Josh was in it with the Mt. Pleasant kids. It was a great parade!

JROTC led the way with the flags.

We had the mayor...

...and the principal! She was Oregon's Principal of the Year this year. That's her husband driving.

You know she's good, because her name is Nancy. :)

Then the big JROTC group marched by.

The band looked really sharp and sounded good.

The classes had some great floats.

That's "Pioneer Pete" sitting next to the giraffe.

Remember the camel that was in the news because he was stuck in a sink hole? He had to be rescued in the middle of the night by the firemen.

Well, he was in the parade, too!

Here's Josh with the Mt. Pleasant kids.

And the equestrian team brought up the rear.

Too bad they didn't ride their horses.

Go Pioneers!
