Southwest Baptist University will host the annual Homecoming parade at 10 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 1. Local businesses and organizations are invited to enter a float in the parade.
“We still have space for floats in the Homecoming parade,” said Nathan Penland, director
of student activities at SBU. “There is no cost, and it is a great way for any business
or organization to gain exposure among SBU students and the Bolivar community.”
To register a parade float, go to SBUniv.edu/alumni/parade-registration.php The deadline to register a float is Friday, Sept. 23.
