Alderson-Broaddus College in Barbour County will see an influx of guests this weekend.

The Philippi-based school is gearing up for its annual Homecoming celebration.

The weekend will feature a parade, musical performances, and several key sporting events. The school is expecting a bigger homecoming than in years past, due to its increased enrollment.

"In years past it's been mainly just alums back, and that's all you see. But now you're gonna see a lot more students and alums interacting, which will bring about a nice change on campus," said Nathan Price, alumni director.

The homecoming parade will begin Saturday at 11 a.m. on Main Street in Philippi.
