ON THE STREET

The Southeast Missourian asked people in Jackson: "What do you like about Homecomers?"

Roy Hanners, Burfordville

"Visits with the people, eat, drink and be merry."

Jami Kirn, Jackson

"The rides and the dances."

Jacob Beine, Jackson

"The poster games, the rides and food."

Chris Sterling, Jackson

"The games, the rides and to get away from parents. The food."

Dowell Holdgraf, Jackson

"I just think it's fairly elaborate with the rides, the games and that sort of thing. Plus, it's kind of nice to have a local event specific to the neighborhood and the folks there."
