Middletown Veterans Day Parade Is Nov. 5

The parade will assemble at 12:30 p.m. at Bayview School, 300 Leonardville Road, and step off at 1:00 p.m.

MIDDLETOWN, NJ — Middletown's 60th annual Veterans Day Parade will be held on Sunday, November 5, 2017. The parade is sponsored by VFW 2179 and the Township of Middletown.

The parade will assemble at 12:30 p.m. at Bayview School, 300 Leonardville Road, and step off at 1:00 p.m. The parade will proceed through Campbell’s Junction, turning right at Cherry Tree Farm Road, right at Wilson Avenue and right at Garrett Place, ending at the rear entrance to VFW Post 2179.

The theme of this year’s parade is “Thank a Veteran.” We hope to see the parade route lined with supporters and that you will head to the VFW facility, 1 Veterans Lane in Port Monmouth, immediately following the parade for a complimentary lunch and the opportunity to speak with local veterans. There will also be displays, awards, DJ music, and a “Message to a Veteran” graffiti wall.
