Veterans Day Parade on the Horizon

The next parade in Salem is right around the corner as Veterans Day rapidly approaches! This Saturday, November 7, Titan Tint & Graphics will be hosting the 4th Annual Veterans Day Parade.

“Anyone can enter,” says Titan. “You can walk the parade, ride in it, drive in it, bike, skate, go kart, horses, you name it. The crazier the better for everyone.”

Titan intends to have the parade led by any military members that wish to join, followed by all other civilian floats, and they will follow the established route that the business utilizes in every parade they put on (north on S Main St, circling the Square, and dispersing on Walnut St.

Although free to enter, Titan states donations and banner sponsorships are welcome. They added that all proceeds go to helping local veterans.

“We are very excited to keep this tradition going to honor our nation's military,” they said.
