The parade will leave Gainesville High at 3:55 p.m., traveling Oak Street to Academy Street, then turning onto E.E. Butler Parkway at the intersection with Jesse Jewell Parkway and continuing out Green Street to Bobby Gruhn Field at City Park.

From 4:20-6 p.m., the public is invited to meet the players and coaches on Bobby Gruhn Field.

Recognition remarks will be at 5 p.m.
