Collegeville-Trappe 2012 Memorial Day Parade

Local residents are invited to both take part in this year's Collegeville-Trappe Memorial Day Parade and enjoy watching it along Main Street. 

The parade will assemble at Waterworks Park on West First Avenue in Trappe, PA.  The parade continues up First Avenue to Main Street, then east on Main Street to Third Avenue in Collegeville, ending at the Collegeville Community Park at Third and Park Avenues.  A brief ceremony will be held there to honor our service men and women, followed by an afternoon of food and fun family events.

The theme of this year's parade is "Remembrance:  of our Veterans, the Civil War and Collegeville History."  The 2012 parade will include our veterans, elected officials, first responders, local churches, businesses, historical associations, community service and youth organizations, antique vehicles, floats, musicians, horses, a bike brigade--and most importtantly--you!
