The threat of strong storms and heavy rain for Friday has led to the cancellation of Florida State University’s Homecoming parade.
This year’s Homecoming Parade, scheduled for 2-3 p.m. Friday, was not going to include a route near the campus, where spectators have traditionally lined the streets for a better view. Instead, it evolved into a “reverse parade” for people to drive through at the Tucker Civic Center parking lot.
“With the weather forecast in mind, we did not feel safe holding an outdoor event in potential thunderstorms,” Christina Archipolo of the FSU Alumni Association said in a Thursday evening email.

Ball State University is calling upon its graduates across the world to celebrate its first Spring Homecoming from April 26-May 1, 2021.
While last year’s 94th annual Homecoming celebration was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s Spring Homecoming will feature virtual gatherings, socially distanced campus activities, Cardinal spirit contests, and more. The week-long celebration will culminate in the annual Spring football game on Saturday, May 1.
“While we may not be together, we have so much to celebrate this year,” said Michelle Johnson, Director of Alumni Engagement, Student, Young Alumni and Athletics Programs at the Ball State University Foundation. “With all of our favorite Homecoming activities still happening this Spring, just in a different format, we are excited for our alumni to connect with their fellow Cardinals from wherever they may be.”

While a number of Murray State traditions have been affected by COVID-19, Homecoming will go on as typically scheduled in the fall during the 2021-22 Murray State football season.
The event has been tentatively scheduled for Saturday, October 30, against Tennessee State University.
Director of Alumni Relations Carrie McGinnis said each year they have to take into account the Racers’ football schedule along with scheduling Family Weekend in order to pick the correct date.
After considering all the options, it was decided upon to keep the event as traditional as possible by having it in October.
