Grandview was one of the hottest places to be in the Parkland over the weekend as their held their Homecoming and mud bogs. A crowd that was much bigger than expected packed the town to catch up with old friends, mingle with current friends and everything in between.

Pierce Cairns was a part of the organizing committee and he says just to be back was the most exciting part.

"Just seeing the event happen, it seems like it took forever to plan," said Cairns. "To see everyone out laughing and having a lot of fun, what a special weekend it was."

The weekend wrapped up with a fireworks display that people continue to rave about. With a larger budget, Cairns says they were able to pull out all of the stops and it was a show that many won't forget.

"It was probably the greatest fireworks display that I have ever seen," said Cairns. "That was an absolutely spectacular thing for people to come home to, we've been building up to it for a few years now."

Also taking place was the Amazing Race Grandview which was a big hit. The mud bogs will return next year with the next homecoming set for 2025.
