Northern State University Homecoming Week and Gypsy Day Parade are the highlight of the year in Aberdeen, South Dakota. The week includes a variety of Wolves games and other events and culminates in the annual Gypsy Day Parade—the largest parade in South Dakota. Join in on celebrating NSU’s 125th year and paint main street maroon and gold for the parade. Businesses along the parade route (and in downtown aberdeen) have the ability to get their windows professionally painted with NSU logos, colors and themes. To register, you must be along the parade route from 8th Ave NW to 12th Ave SE, or are located in the Business Improvement District.  Window painting will begin the week of August 31st, and removal will happen the week of October 12th by Aberdeen Artfuls. Each window will be $50 to get painted. If you would like more than one window painted, just put in the quantity of windows to be painted and your price will be adjusted.
