LEEDS — In preparation for Leeds homecoming, Leeds Main Street and Leeds local artist Chris Barentz of ‘Chris bARenTz Originals’ painted the town green.
“With the permission of the business owners, we wanted to help them express their school spirit,” Jamie Stidham, Leeds Main Street Board Member, said.
The parade step-off is at 1:30 p.m. and is put on by the Leeds High School SGA. Leeds High School plays the Southside Panthers at 7 p.m. on Friday, September 30.
Take a stroll down the Leeds downtown district and feel the excitement as they prepare for homecoming week.
Leeds Main Street is a non-profit, volunteer-driven organization. Downtown Leeds has welcomed two new businesses, and over 1,000 volunteer hours have been reported since June 1, 2022.
