Community Day Memorial Day Parade & Events

Our communities’ parade, now in its forth year, promises to be the most melodic and best yet for both parade participants and onlookers!

This year’s parade theme, “Historic Heroes” provides creative inspiration for floats and banners and encourages more musicians and bands to join in than last year.  The Parade Committee have devoted countless hours to creating a must-see spectacle of bands, cars, floats, marchers and other displays dedicated to showcasing our remembrance and gratitude owed to our veterans and our service men and women.

The parade will begin on Monday, May 26th at 10 a.m. sharp at Augustus Lutheran Church in Trappe, and will continue down Main Street to First Avenue.  It will end at noon at Waterworks Park.  Volunteers will hand out flags and programs to the spectators along the route.  Children and families will enjoy giveaways from the parade participants and also at the parade’s end at Waterworks Park.
