BAKER — Baker School will have their annual homecoming parade on Friday, Oct. 24.
The parade will begin at the school on 14th Street and travel along State Road 4, Georgia Avenue and Buckward Road, before ending at the school parking lot.
School Resource Officer Gary Williams, with the Okaloosa County Sheriff’s Office, said deputies will have the parade route closed off before the parade begins at 4 p.m.
“(The parade route) will be closed right before the parade hits Highway 4 as it begins and will reopen at the end of the parade,” Williams stated in an email. “It usually lasts 20 to 30 minutes.”
“The parade’s theme is ‘Beat the Seahawks,’" a parade official said.
Baker’s varsity football team will play the Franklin County Seahawks at Doug Griffith Memorial Stadium at 7 p.m.
