Floats, performing groups, and the Homecoming court made their way down Montwood Street from Skaggs to the Eastwood stadium. People crowded the sidewalks along both sides of the street to see the unique and creative floats. Such displays included the Spanish National Honor Society floats which won first place in the float contest. Second place winner was Entre Nous' Cage the Eagles float which had a small child on a swing representing an eagle inside a giant cage. With the theme Crucify the Eagles, Rodeo Club took third place in the competition. The float was introduced by members of the club riding horses and holding flags. Other clubs which participated in the parade were ELA, NFL, Key Club, Yahna Phi, orchestra, Latin Club, and the French Club. Emotions were stirred as seniors reminisced about past years while underclassmen anticipated future accomplishments. I hope that I'll have the opportunity to be a part of the parade in my future years, said freshman Lilianna jaurrieta. The parade also offered a sense of freedom from the rules and regulations. Since the hall decorating rules had gotten so strict, it fthe paradej helped to raise school spirit during Homecoming week, said student council president Charles Perkins. In order for a float to be judged in the competition, it had to be creative and original, and could not just be a decorated car. The parade symbolized a feeling of accomplishment. The parade represents Homecoming spirit and the participants' hard work and effort, said sophomore Stephanie Moniz. Everybody put their best efforts into the floats, she added. UI think the parade will be a lasting tradition because people want to express their pride in their school, said senior Amelia Hernandez.
