Hilton Hilton Homecoming and Spirit Week, Pep Rally, Parade and Football Game culminated Friday, October 14, when Hilton schools and community celebrated with a parade down Main Street.  Coach Rich Lipani's Cadets shocked Gates-Chili  with a last-minute win, beating G-C 35-28.

The parade began at Quest Elementary and ended at LeBeau Field.  Spirit Week was held all week culminating in a Pep Rally in the High School Gym. 

The parade’s theme for 2011 was “Movies We Love” and student participants from each Hilton school were decked out to support their favorite.  Students from each school chose the following: Village Elementary - Disney, Northwood - Toy Story, Quest - Ghostbusters, Merton Williams - Pirates of the Caribbean and the High School - Harry Potter.   All student participants got into the football game for free.

The parade included some of Hilton’s local dignitaries, organizations, alumni and the Hilton the Marching Band.  "The Hilton tradition continues as we celebrate our community, Hilton Athletics and our schools," said Hilton High School Assistant Principal and Coordinator Scott Wilson.
