Homecoming at our school is crazy! Thousands and thousands of people (mostly alumni psyched to relive their college years) filter into town for the weekend. I'm sure lots of you can understand! We do floats. Sororities and fraternities pair off with each other or with some sports teams or other club and build a float for the huge parade on Friday before the game the next day. It's a week long process getting the float ready. The floats get judged during the parade. There are also games during the week that greeks and non-greeks alike can partke in like scavenger hunts around campus and a king and queen competition.

Betarulz gave a good idea of how to build a float, but a helpful tip-you can buy tissue paper already cut to pomp size (pomps being tissue paper squares that you stick into the chicken wire). Being that you'll need a TON of them the pre-cut ones can be SO helpful!!
