Orleans will hold its annual Memorial Day Ceremony beginning at 10:00 AM at Town Cove, near the Orleans Yacht Club. A brief waterfront service will honor those who have served in the armed forces.
Following the ceremony at Town Cove, attendees will proceed on foot to the Village Green for the remainder of the observance. This year’s relocation is due to ongoing construction at Veterans Memorial Park.
The ceremony will feature United States Coast Guard Master Chief Jeff Smith as keynote speaker, along with performances by the Nauset Regional High School Band and Chorus, who will perform the National Anthem and additional musical selections.
The event will also include the Orleans Police and Fire Honor Guards, members of American Legion Post 308, and representatives from the Orleans Memorial Day/Veterans Day Committee.
All are welcome to attend and honor the memory of those who gave their lives in service to our country.
