WARSAW — Locals got to feel like tourists visiting all 50 U.S. states through Warsaw Community High School’s annual homecoming parade on Friday, Sept. 23.
The high school’s sports teams and clubs brought out their creative side through decorated floats. Many in the community gathered in downtown Warsaw to watch the parade while kids enjoyed candy thrown by the parade’s participants.
The grand marshal for this year’s parade was Barbara Beck, who recently retired from WCHS after working in the Media Center.
WCHS’s football team is playing against Mishawaka tonight, with homecoming court to be announced at halftime.
