Homecoming at RFH scored big with a week’s long celebration culminating in a win for the Bulldogs on Friday night.
Yes, there was a lot of celebrating, but there was no dancing. Well, there was no official RFH dance hosting alumni coming home and seniors on the night before Thanksgiving like decades ago. And the event? Well, it’s all about October. Has been for some time..

It’s that time. Time for Rumson-Fair Haven Regional High School’s homecoming game and festivities. It’s also prime time for raising funds to turn back time to the days when the signature RFH Tower clock worked.
That time, for all that tradition, albeit altered a lot over the years, is tonight.
After a week of what has been dubbed “spirit days” and “battle of the classes,” there was a homecoming festival on Thursday at the Dawg House replete with rides, dunk tank, treats and the battle of the classes events with prizes. This newer tradition started in 2012, doing away with the usual homecoming dance at RFH and earlier tossing aside the Thanksgiving Day game against Red Bank Catholic tradition before dinner on Turkey Day.
Staff, in 2012, said no one was showing for the dance and it was too cold and inconvenient to have the homecoming game on Thanksgiving. Though, decades ago, Borden Stadium or RBC was packed with alum and present students at these games. The dance? It was always a draw for RFH alum coming home from college for the first time and present seniors.
But we digress … The homecoming culmination tonight is the game and the final halftime homecoming court festivities. There’s also that RFH Tower clock fundraiser.
Here’s how it will play out …
Each class decorated its own homecoming float with a theme of choice. The floats will be paraded, chauffeuring the homecoming court, at tonight’s homecoming game, which is set for a 7 p.m. start against Donovan Catholic High School. Floats will be voted on by audience members for best design.
And in the middle of it all, the RFH PTO will be raising funds to have that RFH Tower clock, on which time has stopped for decades, wind up and tell time once again.
Tonight, people can pose with the classic DeLorean Time Machine from 5 to 9 p.m. in the RFH Football Lot.
Here’s more about the fundraiser, courtesy of the PTO …
Time for a touchdown of a homecoming! Go Bulldogs!
