The theme this year was “holidays.”
Then came the crowning of the homecoming queen —senior Kayla Thackeray with Hailey Crump as princess —between the junior varsity and varsity games at the football stadium at Feather River College that evening. The varsity team beat the Weed Cougars 21-17. More information on the game will be included in a separate article.
The students attended an outdoor dance in the quad on Saturday evening.
