Invasion of the tacky tourist

Students in visors, sunscreen, floppy hats and sunglasses crowded the halls Tuesday at The Villages High School.

They were expressing their school spirit on “tacky tourist” dress-up day, one of numerous activities taking place during homecoming week at the high school.
Just good clean fun! Tourists CAN be tacky. That is why they are so easy to spot. This is not denigrating. It is what it is.
