Town of Sherman’s 52^nd Annual Memorial Day Parade
 
On Sunday, May 26^th at 1:00pm, Sherman will celebrate Memorial Day with its Annual Memorial Day Parade from Judd’s Corner and Spring Lake Road through town with a brief stop to place a wreath at the Veterans Memorial in front of the Old Town Hall, and conclude with a commemorative service at Veterans Field. There is no rain date, so bring an umbrella if it looks like rain.
It is Sherman’s honorable tradition to remember and acknowledge the sacrifices made by our Armed Forces throughout America’s history as well as those sacrifices being made by our servicemen and servicewomen today.  These sacrifices guarantee that we are able to gather together for this event in freedom and safety.  Please join our Veterans, our Grand Marshal Monty Clark, our Speaker Ed Hayes, our honored guests, musical participants including Al Burgasser, Ann Muoio, the Sherman School Band, the New Milford High School Band, and all of our ever faithful Sherman marchers.
We invite all past and present members of our Armed Forces to participate in our parade.  We gather at Judd’s Corner at 12:15 pm.
As always, all floats and vehicles must meet local and state registration and insurance regulations.  Please note that State Police safety guidelines preclude carrying passengers in the back of pickup trucks or towed floats.  Please do not throw any trinkets or candy during the parade.
Please contact the First Selectman’s office at Mallory Town Hall with any questions: 860-355-1139.
