The City of Quincy and Mayor Thomas P. Koch invite the public to attend its annual Veterans Day Parade and Ceremony honoring veterans, while paying tribute to military history and the fight for freedom.
The parade will kick off at Quincy High School's Russell Park parking lot. It will travel up Russell Park to Hancock Street, then pause at the corner of Hancock Street and Furnace Brook Parkway for a Wreath Laying at the Doughboy Statue honoring World War I veterans. The parade will continue to the World War II Memorial at Merrymount Park for the annual Veterans Day ceremony at 11:30 a.m.
Two special guest speakers will join Mayor Koch as part of this year’s parade and ceremony:
