Homecoming Week 2011 was a spirit-filled week – not matter the age of the Bearcat!
From Camo Day to Nerd Day, each day during Homecoming Week was a spirited time – and a time for some rather unique creativity. Homecoming is a traditional time to welcome back alumni, but in the halls of the four schools in Dexter it was also a time to build spirit, pride, and enthusiasm.
The younger students had fun with Camo Day and Crazy Socks Day, and the high school students were creative with Nerd Day and Twin Day. All four buildings – students faculty and staff – showed their enthusiasm for Dexter and the Bearcats on Friday by donning the traditional Red and Black to cheer on the Bearcats.
One exciting addition to Homecoming Week this year was the Thursday Dig Pink Volleyball game with the Bearcat Event Center was awash in a variation of red. The BEC was all “pink” as the Lady Bearcat Volleyball team held its first-ever Dig Pink Game to raise funds and awareness in the fight against breast cancer.
The enthusiasm of the week continued on Friday with the Homecoming Tailgate 2011 sponsored by Montgomery Bank and County Wide Insurance and continued on down Brown Pilot Lane to cheer the Bearcats on to a thrilling victory against Caruthersvile in Charles Bland Stadium.
