Memorial Day 2023

 Though today is the federally celebrated Memorial Day now, our town won't be celebrating until the 30th. Sunday the 28th we had a chance to attend a celebration in Norwich, VT because Dan now plays tuba in a community band that was booked to serenade from the Norwich Green gazebo.






The parade from the cemetery was late starting.




They gathered then at the Town Hall memorials.


Taps was played and a 21 gun salute.


Then the band played.


Free hot dogs, chips and drinks were served by the Boy Scouts.

A nice dignified celebration.
