Jarrell Residents Line 5th Street for Homecoming Parade

The 2013 Jarrell ISD Homecoming Parade was the place to be Wednesday, October 2.  Residents lining the streets were treated to over 25 parade entries traveling from 1st Street, down Avenue H, and turning on to 5th Street in Downtown Jarrell as it headed to the Jarrell Middle School parking lot for a spirited pep-rally.  

Leading off the parade this year were two people that the planning committee felt spend a considerable amount of time supporting Jarrell ISD, most of the time behind the scenes.  It was a pleasure to have The Jarrell, TX - Hometown Spirit - King and Queen riding in the Deborah's Digital Design parade entry (driven by JES Principal, Jack Wilson, accompanied by JISD Board Member, Tookie Mullen.)  Congratulations to Troy "King" Clawson and Brenda "Queen B" Cooper.

Top prize for JISD entries went to the Jarrell Varsity Football team on their football field inspired float.

Second place went to the The Cougarettes.  The future cheerleaders of JHS.

Third Place went to Jarrell FFA.

 

Top float for the business community was awarded Clawson Disposal for their innovative entries which consisted of dual cannons mounted on a rolling sound system (Troy's Truck), a motorized dumpster and the newest addition to their fleet.  Watch the cannons go off here.

A video of the parade can be seen here.  Links to both the cannon shot and full parade are on the Deborah's Digital Design facebook page.

Friday is a big day for JHS.  Lady Cougar Volleyball teams face the Lady Eagles from Salado in  big district match-ups beginning at 3:30, with the Freshman and Junior Varsity teams, followed by Varsity.  Homecoming Court will be presented at 6:30 and the Homecoming game against Johnson City will begin at 7:30.  Please watch facebook (www.facebook.com/DeborahsDigitalDesign) for links to photos from all of these events.
