<b><font face="Arial">Homecoming is little over a month away and</font><font
face="Arial"> our theme this year is Mountaineer Spirit.</font></b><font
face="Arial"><b> Our community carnival is scheduled for Saturday
October 31st from 4 pm to 7 pm and it is the first event of a week long
schedule of events for homecoming. </b> <br>
<b>1. </b><b>Community Carnival Booths:</b> We need to organize now
what clubs will participate by having a fund raising booth (table)
during that time frame. We need game booths and food booths. Please
let us know club presidents and sponors as soon as you have decided
what game or food booth your club with be sponsoring and if you need
electrical. <br>
<b>2. </b><b>Trunk or Treat:</b> It is also the responsibility of
each club to have a "trunk" in the trunk or treat. Your car or truck
will be pulled in to the designated trunk or treat area and you will
give candy to the children to come by for trick or treats from your
truck or tailgate. Your truck must be decorated and manned at all
times. Please remember we have averaged over 1,000 visitors each year
at this event and our trunks often report that they ran out of candy in
less than an hour of trunk or treats. Make certain you have enough
candy for all the little ghouls that will come by. The Nursing Club
has won the decoration contest two years in a row so you have some
competition out there. <br>
<b>3.</b> <b>Mr. Eastern contest:</b> Mr. Eastern is scheduled for
Tuesday November 3rd and we would like to see as many clubs represented
as possible in Mr. Eastern sponsored this year by the Psycho club.
Please get the name of your designated participant to Marilyn Duncan as
soon as you know who they are. She has paperwork that must be filled
out for them. Participants should be ready to participate in
sportswear clothing, Talent (only 90 seconds please), and Evening Gown
competitions.<br>
<b>4. Homecoming Qeen and King:</b> Also be thinking about who will
be your Homecoming Queen and King candidates and get their names to us
so we can arrange photographs and they can campaign for votes. They
will also need to have a car or truck designated to them for the parade
on Saturday November 7 at 10 am. <br>
<b>5.</b> <b>Parade Float:</b> What will your float be this year?
Our parade theme of Mountaineer Mania should give you a wide range of
options on how you will exemplify your Mountaineer Spirit through
having a float for the parade. Our parade was reported to us by the
City of Wilburton Police office as the largest parade in Latimer County
after only two years running! That's exciting and we have only just
begun! You can begin your float building on Sunday afternoon at 3 pm
at our Pre-float Float party in the Goddard Building. Bring your flat
beds and goose-neck trailers over to find a premium spot to decorate
and enjoy a Rootbeer or Coke Float courtesy of ESGA.<br>
<br>
Thank you to Mr. Leland Walker for allowing us to utilize the Goddard
Building again for float building and to the City of Wilburton for
being so accommodating regarding our parade. Check out the Community
Carnival link on the Eastern Website for a full schedule of carnival
and homecoming week activities. If you have questions please give us a
call at 918-465-1818. <br>
