| There was a full day of Homecoming activities Friday before the football game kicked off (with a pep rally at he high school, a parade downtown, and a pre-game cornation). Homecoming Queen Baylee Eigenheer and King Shawn Koscheski were all grins after a big kiss planted by Koscheski. Flower girl Josey Jones and crown bearer Jaxx Stout shared the moment. I'll have more photos of homecoming activities on a separate page later. -- Ted | |||||||||||||
