2020 Middletown Memorial Day Parade!

Is Scheduled For Monday May 25th

The Middletown Council of Veterans is organizing the 2020 Middletown Memorial Day Parade!

Posted By Ken McClellan, President Of The Greater Middletown Military Museum:
I want to thank past participants, and hope that you will join us again this year, in our tribute to military veterans and their families.

We are hoping that the CoVid-19 outbreak will have settled by the end of May and we can all get together on Main Street. If health restrictions have eased, the parade will be held on May 25.
This year, our theme is honoring African-American Veterans. Here is a slideshow of last years parade, background Music By Tom Callinan!:
