The Memorial Day Parade forms at Freight Street and marches down Grand Street beginning at 1 pm sharp. There will be a patriotic service at 2:30 pm on the Green after the parade concludes.
The Crosby Army JROTC will donate a massive 15 foot by 25 foot American flag to the city and will present it to Mayor Neil O’Leary following the parade.
