Carson High School homecoming king candidates are, back row from left, Scotty Atchian, Merrill Asp, Erik Roberson, Blake Plattsmier, Steven Chaparro and Uriel Duran. Front row from left, are queen candidates Julianne King, Yvonne Hollett, Gina Bianchi, Brittany Wyatt, Tiffany Leonard and McKenna Keefer.
Following a longstanding school tradition, the candidates were "shanghai'd" early Wednesday morning by leadership students who took them out of bed and gave them special outfits to wear for the day.
A Homecoming parade and bonfire will be at 6 p.m., followed by a school assembly on Friday.
The king and queen will be announced during halftime of Friday's football game. The dance will follow.
