For the first time in several years, the Red Raiders will host a parade on the day before Thanksgiving (November 27). Come join us as we prepare to sink the Clippers! The parade will begin at 12:00 and will roll down Main Street in Hyannis. Following the parade, we will hold a pep rally on the Village Green at 1:00 to celebrate all of the fall sports teams.
If you are part of a Fall sports team, or a club, and want to be in the parade, grab an application from Mrs. Gleason in Room 1407 and be a part of this great event! We welcome floats, walking groups, bands, members of the military, and anyone else who wants to celebrate with us!
