The annual Canoga Park Memorial Day celebration is back, this year with the theme "Saluting the Price of Freedom."
The observance takes place in three parts Monday: a 5K run/walk, a parade and a car show.
The 5K begins at 8:30 a.m., but if you're not already registered, you can show up to do so as early as 6:30 a.m. The race itself take place on Sherman Way between Jordan and Mason avenues. The cost to participate is $35 for adults and $25 for children 14 and younger.
The parade, which begins at 11 a.m., has a new, 1.5-mile-long route this year. The parade will run along Sherman Way, starting at Owensmouth Avenue and ending at Mason Avenue.
Finally, there will be a car show with live entertainment until 4 p.m. in the parking lot of the First Baptist Church, 20553 Sherman Way.
The events are presented by the Canoga Park/West Hills Chamber of Commerce.
