Our Homecoming parade and float building are right around the corner. This year's float building period will be Thursday October 12th thru Thursday October 19th.
For those that do not know, float building is one of Druid Hills' oldest and most fun traditions. Each grade comes together to design and build a float to be a part of our Homecoming Parade that will take place at the school on Friday October 20th.
Each grade will need a family to volunteer their house to host float building. The float building house needs to be within walking distance of the school so all students are able to participate, and have ample driveway/yard space to house the float. If you are interested in hosting please reach out to Pierce Bauer, Float Building Commissioner (and DHHS Alumn & Teacher), and he will provide you with all the needed information.
Once we have our host families locked in, we will send out sign-ups to volunteer to chaperone and donate supplies, snacks, and meals.
Please encourage your kids to get involved with float building. It is a unique, one-of-a-kind tradition to Druid Hills and offers a great opportunity for students to come together, so the more students we get to participate the better.
