Memorial Day Ceremonies In Town Of Northborough

Press release from the Town of Northborough:

May 26, 2021

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, Northborough’s 2021 Memorial Day Parade which was scheduled for Monday, May 31, is canceled. We hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable Memorial Day, while keeping in their thoughts the many service members who lost their lives in service to our great nation.

In place of traditional events, the town has produced a prerecorded Memorial Day program to honor the fallen. The program will air Memorial Day on local public access channels Charter 191 and Verizon 31 and on town social media platforms. The program was produced by Northborough Cable Access (NCAT), area veteran groups, and the veteran's agent. Filming of certain aspects of traditional Memorial Day observances were incorporated into a video montage, including grave flag placement, messages from local legislators, town officials, and groups important to the veteran community.
