2010 Memorial Day Parade

Planning is underway for the town’s annual Memorial Day parade, which will be held Monday, May 31.

The parade starts at 10:45 a.m. at Weston High School and then winds its way down School Road, then up Weston Road and onto Norfield Road, ending at Weston Town Hall.

The parade is organized and conducted by the Weston Volunteer Fire Department in cooperation with the Weston Select Committee for Veterans Affairs.

If any Weston organization did not receive an invitation to last year’s parade and would like to participate this year, call 203-227-8081 to reserve a place in this year’s order of march.

Veterans are especially welcome to attend and be recognized. Veterans and their guests may attend the veterans’ breakfast at 9 a.m. and luncheon after the parade — both free — at Norfield Church.

Call Betsy Peyreigne at 203-557-3192 to confirm and let her know how many will attend.

All veterans will line up in the Weston High School parking lot no later than 10:15 a.m. on Memorial Day.

The veterans’ contingent will be provided transportation and reserved seating at the parade.

The Fire Department requests assistance in providing cars, particularly convertibles, and drivers to transport veterans, guests and dignitaries in the parade. Call 203-557-3192 to help with transportation.

Rep. John Stripp will lead this year’s parade.

There are ceremonies and festivities following the parade, including free hot dogs and sodas served afterward at the Norfield Road Fire Station.

The fire department hopes to have the usual large turnout and invites everyone to start planning for the big event.

For more information, call Lyette Segerdahl at 203-227-8081.

Veterans should call Betsy Peyreigne at 203-557-3192.

Should the weather be inclement on Memorial Day, a parade status message will be available at 203-222-2641.
