Rocky schools celebrate homecoming ‘At the Movies’
The Rocky Mountain Middle/High School 2024 homecoming celebration is well underway this week with the theme At the Movies.
The fun began Monday with Movie Monday and continued Tuesday with Construction or Neon Day, and student council advisor Tori Kidgell said many students and staff members wore Tucker Tuff T-shirts. High school and middle school student council members have been selling the T-shirts as part of a fundraiser for Tucker Schulenburg, who was injured in a car wreck/fireworks explosion this summer. Additional shirts are available through Kidgell, who can be contacted at tkidgell@bighorn1.com.
Wednesday was Class Color Day, and the annual Homecoming Olympics were held Wednesday afternoon, followed by the Buff Puff volleyball tournament Wednesday evening.
Thursday is Bikers vs. Surfers Day, and the annual Indian Taco Dinner will run from 4 to 6:30 p.m., sponsored by the junior class. Prices are $10 for a taco, $3 for a dessert or fry bread and $1 for drinks.
The Powder Puff football game will start at 6 p.m., followed by the pep rally at 7 p.m. featuring games, skits and the crowning of the homecoming royalty. The annual bonfire that can be seen from space will follow the pep rally.
The middle school and high school cross country teams will run at the Powell Invitational Thursday afternoon starting at noon.
Friday is Brown and Gold Day, and the annual homecoming parade at 9:30 a.m., with lineup commencing at 9 a.m.
“We will head north on South 2nd Street East toward Main Street and end up at the elementary school,” Kidgell said. “We would love for the homecoming parade to be a community event. We want people to come and watch, and people are welcome to have a float in the parade if they want. They just need to contact me if they are interested.
“After the parade we will return to the school for our high school talent show with class videos.”
The Grizzlies will host Greybull at 7 p.m. for the homecoming game with royalty introduced at halftime.
“During Friday’s football game we will continue our fundraiser with a ‘Money Minute.’ Student council members will go throughout the crowd for one minute collecting extra change,” Kidgell said.
The homecoming dance will take place Saturday from 8 to 11 p.m. with royalty announced at
8 p.m.
