The community is invited to show off their Comets pride at Hicksville’s Homecoming Fair, which takes place Saturday, Sept. 13, starting at 10 a.m.
The festivities start at 10 a.m. at Hicksville High School’s John A. Walker Soccer Field. A number of fun activities will be featured, including attractions like a giant slide and an obstacle course, plus many game booths courtesy of the individual PTA units and school clubs. Lunch and snack items will be available for purchase.
The fair is sponsored by the Hicksville Council of PTAs. All profits from the individual PTA unit game booths, 50/50 and raffle baskets will be used to fund Homecoming scholarships awarded each year to deserving graduating seniors. In addition, the Hicksville Congress of Teachers, Booster Club, Band Parents Association and more than 15 activity clubs will participate in this district wide event. The Hicksville Building and Grounds will be running three raffles: two for bicycles and one for an iPad. There will also be a raffle to win a flat screen TV donated by Thomas F. Dalton Funeral Homes.
Game tickets are four for $2. POP (pay one price) bracelets will be sold for attractions for $15.
The homecoming parade will set off from the courtyard at approximately 12:45 p.m., showcasing the marching band, kickline, color guard and cheerleaders. The football team faces off against Levittown MacArthur at 1:30 p.m.
