Homecoming parade delayed by train as it ‘tracks’ through Monday
It wouldn’t be Homecoming without a parade, but it wouldn’t be Pierce County without a train holding things up. Shown above, the lead cars and first part of the annual homecoming procession stand at “parade rest”, to wait on a 12,000-foot long CSX train to clear the Main Street railroad crossing.

Making some hometown proud noise, the PCHS Sound of Silver band keeps the tempo up even as things slow to a stop for a train coming through town.

Shown above (l-r) Mackenzie Allen, Cody Myers and little Carson Myers stake out a spot so Carson can see his very first Homecoming parade.

Shown above (l-r) Aiden, Olivia and Halli Franklin snagged a bench to watch for Madyson Franklin on the dance team in the parade.
