— The Decatur Bulldogs homecoming game will be played against the Danville Little Johns this Friday and students are pumping up their school spirit with a week full of activities.

Students began the celebration on Monday with a fashion disaster dressup day and continued with a bonfire on Tuesday night, class competitions, decorating and a canned food drive.

This year's homecoming queen candidates are Kourtnee Funk, Chynna Harrington, Faerlyn Hunter and Seanna Shaw. Homecoming maids will include juniors Sayde Roughton and Kaula Yang, sophomore Brittany Frost and freshman Manuala Naranjo.

Friday will begin with a pep-rally at 9:15 a.m. Coronation ceremonies will be held at 7 p.m., followed by the homecoming game against Danville at 7:30 p.m. A homecoming dance will be held from 9:15 to midnight in the high school cafeteria.
