JOIN US FOR THE 2026 HOMECOMING PARADE! 🎉

Pipestone Area Schools would love to invite our community to be part of this year’s Homecoming Parade!

Homecoming 2026 will take place September 13–18, with our Homecoming football game on Friday night against the Minnesota Valley Lutheran Chargers. We are looking for local businesses, organizations, clubs, youth groups, community groups, families, and individuals who would like to join us in the parade and help make Homecoming a celebration for our entire community!

PARADE ENTRIES & THEMES:
There is no required theme for community parade entries! We want you to have fun with it and create an entry that represents your business, organization, group, or family however you'd like. If you want a theme to work with, you are welcome to use Arrows vs. Chargers and show off your Arrow pride!

Our Student Council will also vote on the official Homecoming 2026 theme during the first week of school. Once selected, we’ll share it with the community as another optional idea for anyone who would like to incorporate it into their float or entry.

Decorate a float, bring a vehicle, walk as a group, represent your organization, get creative, or just come join the fun. We would love to have you!

WANT TO JOIN THE PARADE?
Parade participation is free. Please complete the parade registration form here: https://forms.gle/1CcAZT6HCtYRZMWF8

More information about the parade route, lineup locations, times, and other details will be sent to registered participants as we get closer to Homecoming Week.

A BIG THANK YOU TO OUR COMMUNITY:
A huge thank you to everyone who has participated, lined the streets, cheered on our students, and supported us as we've brought the Homecoming Parade back over the past few years! We've learned a lot as we've brought this tradition back, and we're incredibly grateful for a community that continues to show up and support us. We hope to keep growing this tradition each year and we’d love to see even more of you join us this year for our 2026 Homecoming parade! 💚

Thank you to Tyler Fruechte, Katie Wiese, Mark Hiniker, Brad Carson, Daphne Likness, Chrissy DeBates, and Tami Taubert!

Serving on a school board is an important responsibility that requires time, commitment, and a willingness to work on behalf of our schools. We appreciate the time our board members give to help support Pipestone Area Schools and its students.
