Neshanic Vol. Fire Co. Memorial Day Parade Sign

🏁 Monday, May 25 — Step Off at 9:30 a.m.

Information For Participants

All local scout troops, youth organizations, civic groups, and others are welcome to participate. Please arrive between 8:45 and 9:15 a.m.

Groups walking in the parade should assemble on the firehouse lawn (Maple Avenue side). FD, EMS, and other vehicles should line up on Maple Avenue and around the curve on Blackpoint Road.

There is no preset order of march — units will line up in order of arrival.

  Throwing candy or items to spectators is prohibited — children darting into the street creates a serious safety hazard.

  Please respect the solemnity and dignity of Memorial Day. No sirens unless leaving the parade route to respond to an emergency.
