We have received word from Old Lyme First Selectwoman Bonnie Reemsnyder that the Memorial Day parade in Old Lyme has been cancelled due to the anticipated inclement weather. A ceremony will, however, be held in the Lyme-Old Lyme Middle School auditorium at 11 a.m. to honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice in conflicts around the world.
Also, winners of the American Legion’s essay contest titled, “What Memorial Day Means To Me” will read their essays during the ceremony.
Please share this information with family and friends so that everyone becomes aware of this change of plan as soon as possible.
Thank you and have a happy Memorial Day … despite the weather!
