Dear fellow Hanoverians:
The Hanover Memorial Day Parade will kick off from Saint Mary’s rectory at
10:00 a.m. sharp on May 29th so come out and get a good spot. The parade
will be led by the veterans followed by the Ladies Auxiliary and Sons of
Legion. A donated automobile will drive some veterans who cannot walk. The
town officials will also be walking followed by the Hanover High School
Band. The Police and Fire Departments will follow the Hanover High School
Band. The Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts follow as well as Little Leaguers and
Softball players. Coming along behind will be some antique cars, the High
School Class leadership team of 50 on a flatbed trailer, last but not least
is a Calvary-dressed person on a horse.
The march will begin at Saint Mary’s and pass by the new bandstand and
future home of the Veterans Memorial. The veterans will stop off at the
first memorial at Sylvester School to honor the WWI veterans. The second
stop will be at First Congregational Church to honor the Civil War
veterans. We will then march to the Hanover Center Cemetery where we will
honor several sites including Joselyn and Cummings as well as the American
Legion, VFW and Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. We will also honor all fallen
heroes from the Police Department and Fire Department.
The march will continue out of the cemetery and conclude at the Hanover
Town Hall to recognize the WWII, Vietnam and Korean Veterans. The ceremony
will conclude by a moment of silence, speeches from various dignitaries and
the Commander of the American Legion. The Hanover High VOX will sing
patriotic songs as well as the Hanover High School Band will be playing
some patriotic tunes.
