      <title>2026 Homecoming Parade</title>
      <description>
			    &lt;img src="https://lchs.lcps.k12.va.us/UserFiles/Servers/Server_179724/Image/2026-2027/Homecoming%20Parade%20Notice%202026.jpg" /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;LCHS Leadership is excited to share that this year's Hometown Homecoming Parade will be on &lt;b&gt;Thursday, October 15 at 6:00 p.m.&lt;/b&gt; Since many of you have been part of the Homecoming Parade before, we wanted you to be among&amp;nbsp;the first to know that registration is open for this year's parade!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;This year's &lt;b&gt;LCHS Homecoming Theme is Cloud Nine&lt;/b&gt; and the &lt;b&gt;LCPS theme is Brick by Brick&lt;/b&gt;! Please feel free to choose a theme and decorate your float to match!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;If you are interested in registering a float or walking group, please fill out the Google Form linked below to reserve your spot. Due to rising administration costs, we are requesting a $5 registration fee.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;After you have registered for the parade, you should receive&amp;nbsp;a follow up email containing a link to pay the $5 registration fee (if applicable), as well as confirmation&amp;nbsp;of your spot in the parade. In the instance that you have to register after October 8th, there will be a $10 late registration fee.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-size: 13.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://forms.gle/FvsqWdmTtDKYBpxr6" target="_blank"&gt;Parade Registration Form 2026&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; background: white; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;We have attached below the parade routes but please encourage ALL participants to visit our new website. There is a lot of important information to share with everyone there.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-size: 13.5pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;&lt;a href="https://sites.google.com/lcps.k12.va.us/hometown-homecoming-parade/home"&gt;Hometown Homecoming Parade Homepage&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black;"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: black; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;Please feel free to reach out if you have any further questions.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34);"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"&gt;Thank you and see you on October 15!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
