The Shelbyville High School Homecoming Parade starts at 6 p.m. Wednesday at Hendricks Elementary School.
The parade will leave Hendricks, 1111 St. Joseph Street, and turn right on to St. Joseph St. and travel east to S. Miller Street, where it will turn right and travel south to McKay Road where it will again turn right and end at the high school tennis courts.
