Trending
LEWISTOWN -- There's no better way to spend a few hours on the weekend than to honor those who served.
City Hook and Ladder in Lewistown is hosting a Veterans Day parade from 10 a.m. to noon Saturday, rain or shine.
The parade route begins on North Wayne Street at the Lewistown Post Office, through Market Street, honorably going by Monument Square, to the Five Points. The parade will then proceed up Valley Street and conclude at Walnut Street.
A judges stand will be set up at the City Hook and Ladder firehouse and one prize will be given to the winner of the Judges Award. No specific requirement is needed to win the Judges award; however, those in the parade should be as patriotic as possible. There is no application fee, but registration forms can be obtained at the City Fire Company. For more information, contact them at 717-250-2626 or cityveteranparade@gmail.com.
