Homecoming Parade...Arrrr you feelin' the Dixie Spirit?

WOW! I wanted to tell you guys about a tradition we have here at Dixie State that is so much fun. Last week was Homecoming Week and there are so many fun activities on campus. My favorite two are Rock the Mall and our DSC Homecoming Parade. I was so sad that I wasn't able to make it to Rock The Mall this year...but I am determined to get a good math grade and they were both at the same time! But I am so, so proud of my fellow Ambassador's who took FIRST PLACE in the competition this year! They sang a pirate-themed version of the school song, which was so hilarious! And in the parade, we decorated our float to look like an old-timey pirate ship and dressed like some serious swash-bucklin' people. This year, there was even a competition and award for best float, and out of sixty one contestants we won too! It was so much fun singing the school song (even though it was so freezing) and these are the moments that I love best about our school. You can really feel the pride for our school at these events, and I'm proud to be a part of it!
Love Always,
Amanda

p.s. Here are some wonderful photos from the parade...hope you have a wonderful weekend!
