Memorial Day Celebration
The Parade will step off from the back of Northern Valley Old Tappan High School promptly at 9:30 am. The parade ends in Oakes Park on Central Avenue. The Memorial Ceremony
includes parading the colors, the National Anthem, Invocation, address by the Mayor, placing wreaths at the Memorial, the rifle salute and taps. In the event of inclement weather, the Fire Department siren will be sounded at 8:15 a.m. advising that the Parade is canceled. In that event, the Memorial Day Ceremony will be held in the Charles DeWolf School Gym at 9:30 a.m. Please remember that Memorial Day is a solemn occasion, dedicated to the memory of our countrymen who have given their lives so that we may enjoy our freedom. Let us treat their memory with dignity and respect, along the Parade route as well as during Memorial Services.
