Homecoming Band Activities

Northwestern Oklahoma State University hosts a Homecoming parade  at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday of Homecoming weekend.  The NWOSU Homecoming Association invites bands to participate in this parade and awards first and second place trophies in six classes of competition as well as offering an open class for bands not  interested in competing. First place winners in each class will receive a $150 award and second place will receive a $100 award. In addition, each band participating in the parade will receive a donation of $75 to help defray expenses. Classifications are as follows:

• Class AAA - High School ADM of 246 or above (OSSAA class AAA or above)

• Class AA - High School ADM of 114-245 (OSSAA class AA)

• Class A - High School ADM of 61-113 (OSSAA class A with 61 or above ADM)

We also invite bands to participate in activities on the square in downtown Alva by performing a fifteen-minute "mini-concert" at the courthouse bandstand immediately following the parade.
