A Summary of Homecoming Week

BY BREANNA REISEN

Homecoming Week was full of excitement! This year Homecoming Week was Sept. 24-29, and the theme of the week was Bobcat Olympics: The Bobcats Go for the Gold. On Saturday and Sunday, students came to the school to decorate their hallways and the town. The week started off with Beach Day, where all the students dressed up in their most festive beach attire. Also on Monday, all of the students took part in voting for Homecoming king and queen. The extended-fourth Olympics began; the first game of the week was the claw walk. On Tuesday, students impersonated their favorite celebrities for Celebrity Day. The extended fourth Olympic game of the day was powder-puff football. Meanwhile, in the old parking lot, the car show had begun. Mathletes vs. Athletes was Wednesday’s dress-up day. The game of this day was the three-legged race. Thursday was Hunting/Camouflage Day, and the extended-fourth activity was tug-of-war. And, of course, Friday was Spirit Day, where all of the students dressed in their most spirited Bobcat wear. Friday also brought the pep rally and the parade. Finally, later that day, there was the big game, where Western Dubuque took on Oelwein, which was followed by the Homecoming dance on Saturday night.

*Due to the publication date of the Bobcat Bulletin, these events have been summarized prior to their occurrence.
