We look forward to celebrating, honoring, and remembering our veterans with you at the Memorial Day Parade on Monday! We'll enjoy more than 116 participating groups including bands, military units, floats, and community organizations.
The parade begins at 10am at Kennett High School and follows South Union Street to East Cypress Street, up the 100 block of South Broad Street, then west on State Street to North Union Street and on to Union Hill Cemetery, where a memorial ceremony is held at noon. You can download the map here. The Linden Street parking garage will be free from 8am to 8pm on Memorial Day and there will be free shuttle buses from Unionville High School to the new Kennett Library, only two blocks from the parade route. The parade route will be shut down to all traffic at 9:30am. You can find the full schedule of parade activities here.
We wish you a Happy Memorial Day and a great week "Around the Square"!
