HOMECOMING FAQS
Q: Why are only high school clubs allowed to have a float?
A: There are multiple reasons we decided to limit the parade to high school floats only:
Our growing community cannot support that many floats on our limited route - the last year it was open to everyone we had 42 floats — the parade was longer than the route, and there were no kids to throw candy to because they were all in the parade!
Safety – due to the logistics of managing large trailers and trucks in the staging area (home football parking), it is necessary to limit the number of participants to ensure a safe environment for all involved.
Homecoming focuses on the high school game, and limiting floats to high school organizations allows us to really highlight the many clubs, sports, etc that our awesome high school offers!
Q: I used to set up on the road up to the home side, but I see that you don’t have that option anymore. Why has that been changed?
A: Due the safety hazard of navigating the winding road, trees, and the hillside down to Eagle Spirit Ln, we have decided to close off that road for enjoying the parade or parking. The parade participants will not throw any candy or items until they are on Eagle Spirit Lane. Please help us ensure the safety of the community as well as the parade participants in honoring this request.
Q: What’s the policy with tossing candy/items out to people along the parade route?
A: One of the priorities both the school and the Brock Eagle Booster Club put above all else for this parade is safety. In the past, one persistent issue along the parade route has been kids coming too close to the floats in order to retrieve candy/items that were tossed on the ground. In an effort to remedy that problem, this year we are requiring each car have one adult walking along each side of it, and a minimum of two adults walking along each side of a float/truck+trailer to help keep kids away from the vehicles themselves. If you are tailgating along the parade route, please supervise your children and ensure they stay clear of the vehicles and do not throw candy BACK at the people on the floats. Thank you.
Q: Will there be other restrooms available besides at the football field?
A: YES, we are hoping to have a restroom available at the Elementary and High School campuses. Awaiting confirmation on that.
Q: Can I choose the location for a tailgating space for my team/club?
A: No – there are specific spaces along the route for tailgating, and they are assigned based on the number of participants of the group, ages, etc. We will make all location decisions that are best for the flow of the parade and crowd control. If we put too many tailgate spots in one area, there will not be enough parking for parents expected to supervise their children. It’s a balancing act, but we will do our best to make sure all groups are safe and enjoy every aspect of the parade!
Q: Will there be food at the parade?
A: There are some tailgating areas that bring food to share with their participants! You are also welcomed to bring food for your own group, but NO GRILLING OR OPEN FLAME is allowed for liability reasons and per the fire marshal. The concession stand will not be serving food, but we will post if we have any refreshments available during the parade or pep rally!
Thanks for your participation and support of Brock Football and Brock High School! We are looking forward to another fun community event!
