Minden Public School’s Homecoming week starts on Sept. 26. The Homecoming theme for 2022 is “Hammer the Huskies.”
The Homecoming parade will take place on the square on September 30 at 2:30 p.m. The crowning will take place at the Minden Opera House’s balcony immediately after the parade.
Organizations or groups who want to enter a parade float are asked to line up on the streets to the east and north of the post office. (Do NOT line up behind the fire department vehicles – in case of emergency and to ensure you’re included as the emergency vehicles are the last entry of the parade.) Your entry will be directed into the parade once there.
If there is inclement weather, we will notify the public via our social media, text, and phone call protocol. The coronation would then take place before the football game.
