Weather Forecast
Rain or Shine, Here Comes Homecoming
There is a little rain in the forecast and we wanted to make sure you had information about ways to stay informed about the parade and football game.
The parade will start marching down Central Ave. at 10:30 a.m. tomorrow morning. VCSU will post photos of the parade, and any additional scheduling information on Facebook (ValleyCityStateUnviersity), Twitter (@VCSU), and on Instagram (@VCSUVikings).
The VCSU Vikings will take on the Mayville Comets in football at 2 p.m. on Saturday at Lokken Stadium. There will be a great tailgating scene prior to the game and we encourage everyone to attend. There is a chance it might rain. Make sure to follow us on social media including Facebook (VCSUVikings), Twitter (@VCSUVikings), and Instagram (VCSUathletics) to stay up-to-date if there are any weather impacts during the game.
