In honor of the men and women of the armed forces who have served our nation, The U.S. Navy is sponsoring this year’s Veterans Day Parade.

The parade begins at 4 p.m. on Friday, November 11th on Duval Street at Catherine. The parade will proceed down Duval to Front Street. Bus service will only serve the Simonton side of Duval Street from 4 p.m. until 8 p.m.

Last week the City Commission passed a proclamation in recognition of veterans “who have served this great nation with such distinction, both in peace time and in war.”
