MILTON — Milton High School’s 2016 homecoming celebration is set Nov. 4.

The campus will bustle with many activities throughout the week, culminating in Friday’s events: the homecoming parade, game and crowning of the homecoming queen.

Homecoming fever has struck, as classes and clubs are busy planning for a skit, float, car and door competitions.

Escapades, an event that showcases the club and class skits, will take place 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 1 in the James Rosser Gymnasium.

The Homecoming assembly will take place 9:30 a.m. Wednesday, Nov. 2, also in the gymnasium.

On Nov. 3, winning skits at the Homecoming Pep Rally, which begins at 2 p.m., will entertain the Panthers.

The week will end Friday, starting with the Homecoming Parade, which will begin 10:30 a.m. at King Middle School. It will travel south on Stewart Street, turn on Magnolia Street, then turn onto Byrom Street, proceed to Raymond Hobbs Street and then turn back on Stewart Street. The parade will turn on Park Avenue and end in MHS’s south parking lot.

That evening, the 2016 homecoming candidates and class representatives will be introduced at pre-game, beginning at 7 p.m. During halftime, Sarah Demond, the 2015 homecoming queen, will crown the 2016 homecoming queen. MHS junior Kyla Kirby will serve as emcee for the evening’s events.
