SALUTE TO CECIL COUNTY VETERANS CELEBRATION
WEDNESDAY, JULY 3RD, 2024 FROM 4—10PM
THE NORTH EAST TOWN PARK
300 CHERRY STREET,

It’s fun for the whole family! We convene in the park, where Veterans’ Service Organizations vend their wares to raise funds for their chapters, local community organizations have displays of their missions, and food vendors work to fill your stomach!
The park will also have military equipment, vehicles, and military personnel – – – and with a little secret, a very special Event will occur about 8 PM. Shhhhhh, it is a secret. Also In the Park, there are family oriented activities, such as the Rubber Ducky Race, and Face Painting, – – – and there is a “Field of Flags” by our local Boy Scouts of America to honor those who served.
The official ceremony begins at 8 PM, and includes the Flag Raising, Pledge of Allegiance, Salute to the Veterans, all along with local community leaders and Veterans Leaders making presentations. Local musicians perform prior to the Ceremony, and Local Officials and Community Leaders recognize the Veterans and Organizations with awards.
Then, to top it all off, the Event and evening concludes with Fireworks on the water! A spectacular show!!
