3 schools to choose Homecoming Queens tonight

By Bryan Stevens

Three Carter County high schools — Hampton, Happy Valley and Unaka — will host homecoming Friday evening with a variety of festivities planned for half-time during their respective football games.

Eight girls from the senior class at Hampton High School will compete for the Homecoming Queen crown.

The selection process for candidates at HHS involves candidates running with sponsorship provided by the school’s extracurricular clubs and athletic teams. A wider field of candidates is whittled to eight finalists for the half-time coronation during homecoming.
