Main Street storefronts to be decorated for Homecoming

By Vanessa Overholser - Staff Writer

Storefronts along Main Street will be decorated in Red, White and MSU (Morehead State University) Blue during the Community Storefront Decorating Contest Oct. 16.

Student Activities Coordinator Terri Roberts said it is a new addition to MSU Homecoming for 2008.

“We mailed letters out to Main Street businesses encouraging them to decorate their storefronts around the theme of our parade ‘Red, White and MSU Blue’ (a patriotic theme),” Roberts said.

The time span for the contest was from Oct. 1-16. This contest is like the one that is done for the Hometown Holiday where businesses decorate their storefronts.

“It is a way to tie community businesses with the Homecoming Parade we are having Thursday at 6 p.m.,” Roberts said.

The idea for the contest came about during the Homecoming Planning meeting, she said.

“We thought we would start it this year and see how it goes,” she said. “The contest is just for Main Street Businesses. Maybe next year we will expand it.”

The Homecoming Parade will begin at MSU Support Services Complex and it will end at the main entrance of MSU across from the old Jerry’s lot.

Roberts said the contest would be very beneficial for the university.

“I think it will show the student body that it is a city wide celebration and it is not just exclusive to MSU,” she said.

If anyone has any questions about the event, contact Roberts at 783-2071.
