Spirit Parade On September 28 Kicks Off Homecoming Weekend

Lakewood High School’s annual Homecoming/Spirit Parade kicks off Homecoming Weekend activities on Friday, September 28. The parade, which welcomes students and groups from all the District’s schools as well as the community, will step off from Lakewood Park at about 6 p.m.

The parade will then proceed east on Clifton Boulevard then head south on Bunts Road, finishing up at LHS Stadium, just prior to kickoff of the Rangers vs. Rocky River football game. During pre-game activities, the Homecoming Court will take the field and a new King & Queen will be announced.

As part of the Homecoming Game halftime activities, alumni of the Ranger Marching Band will join to play with the current marching band. The traditional Alumni Band Night will be particularly poignant as it is the last year for longtime director Brian Maskow, who will be retiring at the end of this school year after 30 years as Lakewood High’s Director of Bands and 35 years of directing in Northeast Ohio.

So don’t miss out on the fun of Homecoming Weekend: grab a chair along the parade route and/or come over to the stadium for some Friday night football. Tickets to the game are $6 and can be purchased at the gate or in the LHS Athletic Department.
