Charlestown will hold its Memorial Day Parade May 30 starting from the fire station (2021)

- Wendy DiAlesandro

Charlestown Township’s Memorial Day Parade is a go this year. The parade will be held at 11 a.m. May 30, starting off from the fire department at Rock Spring and Newton Falls roads and proceeding to Charlestown Township Cemetery, where there will be a short ceremony. 

Since the parade route is only about three minutes long, trustees encourage children with bicycles to decorate them in a patriotic theme and join in. Prizes will be awarded, and all participants will receive ribbons. Floats are welcome.
