Residents old and young remembered the sacarafice of previous generations at the town's annual Memorial Day parade and rememberance ceremony. Dozens of people lined Valley Road and watched as the Wayne Valley High School marching band, Girl Scout troops, and members of the American Legion Post 174 made their way up the street to the municipal complex where a rememberance ceremony was held. Wreaths were laid by legion members at the township's firemen's memorial in front of the municipal complex.
Parade will head up Valley Road, end at municipal building.
The township’s annual Memorial Day parade will begin at 11 a.m. on Monday. The parade will start out on Ratzer Road, head up to Valley Road, and end at the municipal building. The parade is expected to conclude at noon. Wreathes in rememberance of those veterans who died while serving were placed at the firemen’s memorial in front of town hall during a ceremony at last year's parade. Residents lined Valley Road and waved American flags as the Wayne Valley High School marching band, the American Legion Post 174, the Police Athletic League, and local Cub Scouts, Girl Scouts, and Boy Scouts walked in the parade last year. It is not known what local organizations or individuals will be featured in the parade this year.
