The Annual Memorial Day Parade and Service is a reminder to each of us that many of our countrymen and women fought and died to preserve our nation’s freedom. After the pandemic caused cancellations to the event in 2020 and 2021, Perkasie Borough is honored to partner with Hartzell-Crouthamel Post #280 of the American Legion this year to return this treasured tradition to our community.
The Memorial Day Parade and Service will take place on Saturday May 28th, 2022. The Parade will begin at 9:00am from the Shelly’s lot in the center of town and end at the Memorial Garden at Menlo Park. The Memorial Day Service will begin in Menlo Park at approximately 10:15am. The event will cancel in the event of rain.
