The Danvers Memorial Day parade begins at Town Hall at 9 a.m. sharp, and will follow the traditional route of previous years - down Sylvan Street, through downtown and back to Town Hall. Traditional stops and placement of wreaths will occur at the Danvers Square Memorial Flagpole, the Town Hall Memorials and Porter’s Burial Ground on High St. All Danvers veterans are invited to participate in the parade in their civilian capacity, with a handicapped accessible trolley provided for those who are unable to march.
The Memorial Day Ceremony will occur upon completion of the parade (approx. 10 a.m.) at this year’s new venue - inside the Auditorium of the Holten Richmond Middle School. There will be performances by the Danvers High School Marching Band, the Danvers High School Advanced Chorus, Musket Salutes by the Danvers Alarm List and the Roll Call of deceased veterans.
