There were categories for the floats such as biggest, smallest, and most original. This year was the first year Student Council sponsored a parade. Mayor Carole McClellan, an alumni of McCallum, attended to help celebrate the 30th anniversary festivities. During the pep rally, other alumni were introduced. After all the weekly festivities, Student Council sponsored the annual Homecoming dance. The dance was very successful due to all the events and a prior defeat of the Trojans.
