A homecoming parade begins at 3 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 8 and will run on Fourth Street in Platte City from Thomas Drive to the former Rising Star Elementary. Immediately following the parade, the Traditions Band will perform several pieces on the steps of the Platte County Courthouse in downtown Platte City. Then Wells Bank will also be hosting its annual community tailgate party in the High Pointe Shops Shopping Center parking lot.
