The Joint Veterans Council will sponsor a Veterans Day parade at 3 p.m. Nov. 10.
The parade will begin just west of the Common Pleas Courthouse and proceed north to Broadway and west to Capaha Park. The parade will be held in memory of the 50th anniversary of Pearl Harbor.
The parade marshal will be U.S. Rep. Bill Emerson. He will also present a special medal to Pearl Harbor survivors or their next of kin at the conclusion of the parade. The ceremony will be held at Freedom Corner in Capaha Park.
For more information about participating in the parade, call VFW Post 3838 at 334-4438.
