Memorial Day became a federal holiday in 1971. Here is a look at how Americans have celebrated through the years while also honoring those who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country.
You're invited to attend the Memorial Day Parade, American Legion Ceremonies at Joseph T. Musetti Veterans Park (Marina) and Community Cookout at the Marina on May 27th. Here's the schedule and photos from 2022.
Last year I had the opportunity to attend the Northeast Harbor's 2022 Memorial Day Observance. It really was wonderful, as it combined everything you could want, a parade, a solemn ceremony honoring those who paid the ultimate sacrifice and capped by a community cookout! They're going to be doing the same thing this Memorial Day, May 29th and you're invited!
