Newton Veteran’s Council, the organizers of the city’s annual Memorial Day Parade, is looking for any schools interested in putting together a float, a marching band, or any other kind of organized group that can march in, or otherwise participate in, the parade.
This year, the parade will be held on Sunday, May 19. The parade typically commences at 2:00 pm and marches through Auburndale and Nonantum. The route is about a mile in length.
Please contact Tom Shoemaker (member of the Veteran’s Council and State Commander of the American Legion), for more information. He can be reached at 617-244-5182.
