OWEGO, N.Y. — If you were wondering what all the sirens were for around 1:00 p.m., Saturday, October 8, in the Village of Owego, that was the sounds of the Owego-Apalachin Central School District (OACSD) Homecoming Parade.
A beautiful fall day provided the backdrop for parade particpants and parade watchers alike. OACSD fall sports teams, the homecoming court, the Owego Free Academy (OFA) Pep Band, area youth sports teams, plus students with floats from Owego Elementary School, Apalachin Elementary School, and Owego Middle School along with area fire, police, and EMS all particpated. The route began at the Village of Owego Police Department on Temple Street and proceeded along North Avenue before turning onto George Street and then arriving at Sheldon Guile Boulveard and Christy J. Valvo Stadium for the 3:00 p.m. Owego Varsity football game against Maine-Endwell. Maine-Endwell won the homecoming contest, 42-7.
