Homecoming Week
May 14th - 19th, 2012
Kings County Homecoming is a weeklong series of events celebrating the "Pioneer Spirit" of those who first came to the San Joaquin Valley and settled in what is today called Kings County. Each year for the past 85 years we have celebrated this spirit by holding various events throughout the county and by honoring select long-time residents from each of the communities within the County as our "Royalty." The Kings County Homecoming Royalty acts as Grand Marshal, Homecoming Queen and Area Kings/Queens for the Annual Homecoming Parade which is held in the city of Hanford. It is this "Pioneer Spirit" that built the County of Kings, it made us strong and it is what will help us to build a better future for our families.
The concluding event for Homecoming Week is the Annual Homecoming Parade in downtown Hanford on May 19th. The parade begins at 10 a.m. and ends at the Hanford Civic Auditorium where a full day of fun for the whole family has been planned. On the grounds and surrounding the Civic Center from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. there is entertainment and fun for the whole family. There is the Annual Homecoming Car Show & Shine that is free to enter and view; live music, demonstrations, free bounce houses, carnival type games, and much more.
The Kings County Homecoming Committee is a totally volunteer group of individuals from throughout the county dedicated to seeing that the heritage of our county is not forgotten. All interested individuals are invited to participate. Meeting are open to all.
