Homecoming 2025 Parade Info

We’re excited for this year’s Homecoming Parade coming up on Wednesday, Oct. 8, at 6 p.m.!

We have updated the parade route to give spectators better views and address safety and maneuvering concerns for our larger floats. We hope the new route will provide a more enjoyable experience for everyone.

New Route

The parade will begin at the stop sign near the middle school football stadium and old baseball and softball fields. The route will travel east on Panther Crossing and finish at the back gate of Bullard High School. Car traffic is not allowed past the gate. Floats will continue behind the high school and will end in the front parking lot of the high school.

Parking

Parking is available on the grassy areas by the old baseball and softball fields, as well as on the grassy areas all along Panther Crossing. Spectators can also park in any of the school parking lots and walk to spots along the route.

Float Line Up and Pick UP

Floats will line up in the Middle School back parking lot and wind around the bus lane to the Intermediate School (if needed). Directions will be emailed separately to all participating floats. Click here if you still need to register your organization's float.

Community Pep Rally

Due to a burn ban issued for Cherokee County, the bonfire will NOT be lit on Wednesday evening. We will now hold the Community Pep Rally in Panther Stadium immediately following the parade, with an expected start time of approximately 7:15 p.m.
