Students and faculty at Gillespie High School capped their last school day of homecoming week with the annual homecoming parade through downtown Gillespie. The short-lived parade was comprised of fall athletic teams, homecoming attendants, senior homecoming court members, Black Diamond Days royalty, retiring GHS homecoming royalty and the class floats created last week.
During halftime of the football game Friday evening when the Miners (2-5) beat Roxana 20-8, it was announced that the senior class won the float decorating contest while the junior class won the hallway decorating contest.
