West Chester Memorial Day Parade

On Monday 5/29, the morning Memorial Day Parade will make its way down Cincinnati-Dayton Road through the historic Olde West Chester business district to West Chester Cemetery (a.k.a. Brookside Cemetery) on West Chester Road for a special remembrance ceremony. While the parade is in motion, members of the West Chester ~ Union Township Historical Society read aloud the names of all veterans interred at the cemetery where 800 are laid to rest, including 100 Civil War veterans and one Revolutionary War veteran. The Memorial Day Parade promotes a family-friendly atmosphere and is intended to pay tribute to those who serve our country.
