Memorial Day Parade

Thank you to staff members Elizabeth Stefanov, Tracey Harbin, Lori Holmes and her family and the many families that joined me to represent the Library during the annual Twinsburg Memorial Day Parade. The library invited families to decorate wagons, bikes and pets. The parade is organized each year by VFW Post 4929, led by our friend Officer Joe Jasany, and the Ladies Auxiliary. It was an honor to walk in memory of those who have served and are serving our country. Representative Brian Williams was on hand, as were our Mayor Katherine Procop, city council members, Township Trustees, Scouts, the High School Band, baseball teams and most importantly the veterans . The highlight of this Twinsburg tradition was the amazing flyover by the C-130 Hercules Transport, that came thundering right over the path of the parade. If you haven't attended this very special ceremony yet, make sure to be there next year, and we hope to have you walk with us! Laura Leonard
