The East Atchison Winter Homecoming festivities are being held this week at the Tarkio and Fairfax High Schools. The students have had a fun week, which will end with the homecoming basketball games and king and queen coronations this Thursday, December 9, in the Fairfax gym. Because the basketball teams also play Friday, there will not be a jersey auction. Due to COVID, there will not be any special activities held after homecoming coronation.
