Memorial Day 2017: Oak Creek Ceremony Time and Location

OAK CREEK, WI — Memorial Day is Monday, May 29. For some, Memorial Day is an extra day off of work filled with family gatherings, an outdoor celebration or a chance to get that garden or landscaping work done.

But for all of us, Memorial Day is exactly that, a day set aside to honor the memories of friends, family and loved ones who lost their lives serving our country in the armed forces.

Here are the details for Oak Creek's Memorial Day Ceremony:

Oak Creek's Memorial Day Program will be held at 9 a.m. Monday, May 29, at Forest Hill Memorial Park Cemetery, 3301 E. Forest Hill Ave., at the east end of the cemetery.

The American Legion will also invite all attendees to the American Legion Post at 9327 S. Shepard Ave., Oak Creek, for free hot dogs, ice cream and soda.

Oak Creek will display banners at Drexel Town Square for current Oak Creek service members from Memorial Day through Labor Day.
