Memorial Day parade plans set

The American Legion Post #117 has announced its plans for the 2019 Memorial Day parade and observances on Monday, May 27.

Members of the Legion post will travel for a brief service at the Norvell cemetery at 10 am. They will return to Manchester for an 11 am parade, which begins on the Main Street Bridge, then proceeding on to Wurster Park and Oak Grove Cemetery.

Immediately following the parade, a dinner will be held at the Legacy Center adjacent to the Legion home on Adrian Street.

For as little as $1 a month, you can keep Manchester-focused news coverage alive.
