STATE VOLLEYBALL CHAMPIONS PARADE CELEBRATION!
We are inviting the whole community of Minden to join us in a celebration of our State Champion Volleyball Team on Wednesday November 8th at 4pm downtown on the square. We will have a short Champions Walk (parade) starting on the corner of 5th and N Colorado and going around the square one time where they will then stop at the Opera House. The mayor, coaches, and players will speak from the balcony. We invite everyone who is able to line the sidewalks around the square to cheer on our girls as they make the Champions Walk!
Following the parade the Tribland Tailgate Sports Show will be broadcasting from Minden High School in the commons. During their show, they will highlight the Whippet Volleyball team and interview players and coaches. This show is scheduled to start at 5pm and any parents or supporters are welcome to come and watch the show in the commons as well. Here is a link to the Tribland Sports Tailgate Show website:

The Homecoming Parade Route has CHANGED due to a waterline break on the square. The whole parade will take place on Fifth Street, starting just before the square and continuing to the library! If you are planning to have a float in the parade, you can park on Nebraska Avenue West of Fifth Street and we will direct you from there. We will use the parking lot of the old IGA for the convertibles and bands. The coronation will still take place at the Opera House. Thank you for understanding.
