Fall is in full swing in Kenosha, and Mayor David Bogdala is joining in the celebration. According to the Kenosha News, the mayor recently marked homecoming festivities at both UW-Parkside and Carthage College, two of the city’s beloved higher-education institutions.
Homecoming is one of the most cherished traditions on any college campus — a time when current students, alumni, faculty, and the broader community come together to celebrate school pride, reconnect with old friends, and cheer on their teams. Having Kenosha’s mayor participate in both events underscores just how central these two campuses are to the fabric of the community.
UW-Parkside and Carthage College together serve thousands of students from Kenosha and the surrounding region, and their homecoming weekends bring energy and excitement to the city each autumn. From parades and pep rallies to alumni gatherings and athletic competitions, homecoming week is a reminder of the deep ties between Kenosha’s neighborhoods and its academic institutions.
Mayor Bogdala’s presence at both campuses signals a warm relationship between local government and higher education — a partnership that benefits students, faculty, and residents alike. Whether you’re a proud Ranger or a devoted Firebird, this homecoming season is a great reason to celebrate everything Kenosha’s college community has to offer.
As the leaves change color and the excitement of fall sports fills the air, Kenosha is clearly embracing the season — and the spirit of homecoming — with open arms.
