Veterans Day Parade scheduled
The Anderson County American Legion Post 172, in partnership with Veterans of Foreign Wars Post12051, AMVETS Post 2 and Disabled American Veterans Tri-County Chapter 26, announce that the 16th-annual Anderson County Veterans Day Parade will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 11, in downtown Clinton.
This year’s theme is “Thanks to all Anderson County veterans for your service.”
The parade lineup will be in the parking lot on Gilliam Street, between the Clinton Community Center and the Clinton High School Football field, one hour before the beginning at 9 a.m.
The parade will start on Gilliam Street, turn right onto West Broad Strett, left onto Main Street, passing in front of the Anderson County Courthouse, and go right on Market Street, then end at Cullum Street (right off Market).
All veterans are invited to participate and everyone is encouraged to come out and support our veterans, past, present and future, during this parade.
There is no Registration fee, but donations are accepted to assist with advertising.
