We will be lining up for the parade at 6th and Main at 11:30AM and stepping off at 12:00. For those of you who have never participated, you should. I have never heard one complaint about having 10 or 15,000 bystanders cheer as we go by. I think its is also important to know it isn’t an ego trip for the VFW, but it is our responsibility to lead the parade with the colors of our Country. Hopefully, we will have enough vehicles for those unable to walk, and if not, we will be able to ride on the Chamber of Commerce’s float. Be forewarned, the parking is limited and you may want to arrive early. Better yet, park at the City Park at Third and Pine and walk to the parade if you are able. Our own Erv Schmidt will be the Grand Marshall of the parade,
We will be having our annual picnic at the Park immediately following the parade. All VFW and American Legion members and their Auxiliary members are encouraged to attend as well as children and grandchildren.
