Description
The City of Elk River is excited to host the Memorial Day Parade on Monday, May 27 at 10:00 a.m. as we honor those who have served, gave their lives serving, or currently defend our country as a member of the armed forces. The parade begins on Norfolk Street, just east of Handke Pit, and will run down Main Street to King Avenue, where attendees are encouraged to gather at Rivers Edge Commons Park for a Memorial Day ceremony at 10:30 a.m.
The parade includes members of the Elk River American Legion and VFW posts, as well as ISD 728 Cadets, the Legion Auxiliary, Beyond the Yellow Ribbon, Legion Riders, and several other organizations. If you're an Elk River Veteran who is not a member of the Legion or VFW, you are encouraged to take part in the parade as well. Please report in uniform to Norfolk Street at 9:15 a.m. on Memorial Day.
In case of inclement weather, the parade will move indoors to the Field House at the Furniture and Things Community Event Center. The announcement will be updated on our social media channels and website.
