Memorial Day Parade & Observance
The Memorial Day Parade will be Sunday, May 25 stepping off from the Post at noon. We will also be rendering honors to two veterans at Hillside Cemetery before the parade. The memorial day ceremony will take place at the Town Hall monument site. There will be a band playing at the Gazebo and plenty of refreshments on hand after the event. Many volunteers are working together to make this event a success and really all we need now is you to attend to make it a meaningful remembrance for those who served and sacrificed for us. I hope to see you there.
