Memorial Day Parade

When and Where

When: May 26, 2025
Timeline: 10:30 am — 1:00 pm

Location: 3rd Ave and 76th Street, Bay Ridge, Brooklyn

This is the 158th Kings County Memorial Day Parade, making it the longest continually running Memorial Day Parade in the United States.

Our troops will be there. We need to have a great showing. Reminder that Memorial Day is a federal holiday for a specific and solemn purpose, honoring and mourning the U.S. military personnel who died while servicing the United States armed forces.

The parade steps off at 76th Street & 3rd Avenue at 11:00 AM, but the troop should be there half an hour earlier and concludes with a ceremony inside John Paul Jones/Cannonball Park on 101st Street off 4th Avenue/Shore Road. 

This event is MANDATORY.

Please come in full Class A uniform, and please inform the PL, SPL and ASPL, if for whatever reason you won't make it.

History

A memorial day parade is an annual event in cities across the whole nation to honor fallen war veterans.
The tradition was started on May 30th, 1868, and has been going on ever since.

Our troop also took part in last year's Memorial Day Parade.
