Old Saybrook — The Town of Old Saybrook will hold its annual Memorial Day Parade on May 25.

There will be two ceremonies: a waterside, full naval ritual with a rifle salute at 9 a.m., followed by a parade at 10 a.m. that will end at the Veterans Memorial Monuments.

The parade assembly will be at 9:30 a.m. at the Stop & Shop parking lot. The parade steps off promptly at 10 a.m. from Elm Street, and will go straight across Route 1 to Main Street to the Veterans Memorial Monuments on the Town Green, where a memorial program will be conducted.

All veterans are invited to attend, and rides in the parade route are available. Those interested should contact Max Sabrin at osfd@aol.com or (860) 395-5550.
