Children invited to take part in the Lincolnwood Memorial Day Parade

This year, the Village of Lincolnwood and American Legion Post #1226 invite children eight years and under to take part in the annual Lincolnwood Memorial Day Parade on Monday, May 29.

Children are invited to decorate their bikes, trikes, wagons or scooters with a patriotic theme and ride in the parade.

The parade will start at the corner of Cicero and Pratt Avenues at approximately 10:20 am, and then travel east on Pratt Avenue, turning north on Keeler Avenue, ending in Proesel Park at Madeleine’s Garden.

Following the parade, a ceremony will take place in Madeleine’s Garden at approximately 11 am.

Local groups and organizations are also invited to be a part of the Memorial Day Parade. Whether your group is from a Lincolnwood business, a local or regional organization, a neighborhood or a government entity, we welcome you to participate in this wonderful community event.

This is a a great way to reach out to the Lincolnwood community while celebrating a very special day by honoring those who served our country. If you have any questions, please contact at Lincolnwood Parks and Recreation at (847) 677-9740.
