The United Veterans of Hicksville would like to remind everyone to please use caution when arriving at the Memorial Day Parade assembly area, at the Sears parking lot, on Monday, May 26. We will begin assembling at 8 a.m. with a step off time of 9 a.m. We ask that anyone arriving early, please park on the north side of the light poles that run from the auto center to Bay Street. The south side is where the four parade divisions assemble.
If you are entering the parking lot from Bay Street please stay to the right, north, of the light poles. If you are entering from Broadway please stay on the left, north, of the light poles. There will be individuals with programs available to assist anyone in finding their position in the parade. Any of the participating organizations with floats, will be directed to the proper division that they are in.
Also, the combined elementary school bands will once again assemble at Herzog Place or the parking lot on the north side of the railroad trestle. Anyone dropping off their child there is asked to use extreme caution when arriving. As Memorial Day is a day that we recognize and honor the service of those brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country, it is the main concern of the United Veterans of Hicksville that we have a safe and successful parade and ceremony. We look forward to seeing the Hicksville community in or at the parade.
