The “Reverse Parade” is coming back to Springdale.
Officially known as the Senior Parade, it is scheduled for Tuesday, May 25 at 6 p.m. The rain date is the following evening.
It’s hosted by the Springdale High School Alumni Association and Dynamo Education Foundation.
An event borne out of the pandemic, the “Reverse Parade” was first held last year as a safe way to honor graduating seniors at Springdale High School.
The idea being that rather than parading in cars while onlookers lined the streets, the students would do the reverse stand along the road where they could safely socially distance as carloads and truckloads of family and friends drove by saluting them.
