Join us on the 100th Anniversary of Veterans Day

This year marks the 100th anniversary of Armistice Day, now called Veterans Day, and we hope community members come to Town Hall to honor our local veterans.

The Town of Stoneham will hold its annual Veterans Day Ceremony at 10:30AM at Town Hall. This year there will be the 100th Anniversary Bells for Peace ringing and name dedication to the Korean War Monument. The Veterans Day 5K and 11K road races follow at 11:30AM. Strollers and walkers are welcome. All participants will receive a long-sleeved race shirt and prizes will be awarded to the top finishers. Additionally, registration for this event is offered to veterans and active service members at no cost. Race proceeds go to the Skate for the 22 Foundation and the Stoneham Veterans Assistance Fund.
