All are invited to view the 17th Annual “Veterans on Parade” from the grounds of the West Baton Rouge Museum located at 845 North Jefferson Avenue in Port Allen. A seating area under the shade of a tent will be provided for any veteran wishing to watch the festivities roll by. The parade rolls at 1:30 PM on Sunday, November 5th, 2023. Be sure to stay for a patriotic ceremony and reception that will immediately follow.
At the conclusion of the parade, a special ceremony honoring all veterans from all branches of the military and the Grand Marshall of the 2023 “Veterans on Parade” will be held on the museum’s front lawn. A reception will follow for our honored guests, their families, and the general public to enjoy. Tours of the museum and demonstrations highlighting the craftsmanship of historic trades and agricultural practices taking place inside the museum’s barn will also be available.
“We hope that everyone will join us in showing support of this country, our military and all those veterans that proudly supported and served this great county”, said Garry Hubble, Parade Chairperson.
