Philipstown Offers Memorial Day Weekend Activities
On Monday, May 29th, Memorial Day, Philipstown will be honoring all deceased Veterans of the community with the annual Memorial Day Parade. The parade will start promptly at 9 am. All participants should arrive for the parade line up by 8:45 am at the Municipal Building, Main Street in Cold Spring.
On Sunday May 28, at 11 am there will be a special Memorial Service for Veterans who were lost at sea. This tribute will take place at the Parrott Gun Memorial located at the Cold Spring riverfront. All Philipstown residents are invited to attend this solemn service.
The second year of a Garden of Remembrance on the Great Lawn of St. Mary's Episcopal Church will offer the community the opportunity to memorialize our deceased Veterans throughout Memorial Day Week. Sponsored by St. Mary's with support from the Philipstown Veterans of Foreign Wars and the American Legion the project will benefit all Veterans.
Prior to Memorial Day, veterans will place 1,000 American Flags on the gravesites of deceased Veterans. For more information on Memorial Day activities please consult the May 17, 2006 issue of the Putnam County News & Recorder.
