Walker County High School - Black and Gold Yearbook (Jasper, AL)

One last twist and shout It ' s Homecoming at last, was the general feeling of Walker High School students on Friday morning, October 31, 1986. This is the one time of year for school celebration and all-out fun all day. School began at 8:00 as usual, but at 12:00 everyone was dismissed to prepare for the big happening — the parade, of course. All of the parking lots were full of cars, crepe paper, and many, many people, all decorating cars and trucks for the big promenade. All of the floats were built, all the cars and trucks were decorated, and at 1:00 Walker High School was given the streets of Jasper to show the people just how much spirit they had. Of course no parade succeeds without the floats and there were plenty of them here. Each class had an assortment of beautiful mini-floats to celebrate. Begin- ning with the Seniors, who took the cake with their thirty-foot Chinese dragon, the classes displayed their floats on the streets. The Juniors put a hex on Berry with their witch and cauldron. The Sophomores, with a little help from Captain Crunch Berry , prepared for the game in red. The Freshmen must have scared the wits out of Berry with their haunted house. Sixty cars made up this year ' s parade and all of them helped to make the day festive. The most memorable of these would have to be the Senior ' s flat-bed truck living room scene. It was very relaxing. The usual parade route was followed, making sure to drive by all of the elementary schools and the middle school. Of course the parade couldn ' t forget town square where the band, ROTC, and cheerleaders all did their thing. Top: Beauty is the word for the 1986-87 Homecoming Queen and Court.
