The Burnet community is gearing up for the annual homecoming parade on Oct. 3 as well as the Bulldogs football game against Lake View on Oct. 4. Students are also looking forward to a week of dress-up days.
The community parade is 6 p.m. next Thursday around the courthouse square. Organizations, churches, children’s programs, and more are invited to enter a float. Sign up via an online form by Monday. The parade’s final lineup will be emailed to participants by Wednesday.
Burnet High School social studies teacher and parade organizer Clint Mulhollan said the event showcases the school district’s commitment to its motto of Spirit, Pride, and Honor.
“Participating in the parade gives groups a chance to engage with the public in a fun and festive atmosphere while promoting school spirit and supporting our youth,” he said.
