UPDATE:
Nobody invited Hurricane Helene, but she’s here to literally rain on our parade. The Indian Lake High School Homecoming Game is still on in Laker Stadium. The Parade of Cars is canceled, but the Attendant Procession and Crowning Ceremony will take place on the track. At 6:10 pm the Class Attendants will walk from the starting line to the 50-yard line on the track. The Crowning Ceremony will happen on the track in the middle of the bleachers, as well. We will move quickly, so don’t be late.
Laker fans! We need you to grab your rain gear and get ready to have a soggy Homecoming celebration! Our kids deserve an enthusiastic crowd for their big night!
