The theme will be carried out as classes work on floats from various Disney movies. Floats will be showcased and open for voting at the 34th annual FC homecoming, Oct. 5.

Homecoming nominees, Thompson and Friesen take part in ‘Homecoming Happily Ever After’ by dressing up as Hercules and Meg. Thompson expresses why she and Friesen chose this disney movie.
