Do you want to march in Minnesota’s grandest parade?


The Minnesota American Legion will be in this year’s Minneapolis Aquatennial Torchlight Parade on Wednesday, July 24.

Posts and Legionnaires and Legion Family are encouraged to bring their colors and march, similar to how the Minnesota delegation does massed colors at national conventions.

The marchers will gather at Minneapolis Post 1 and then be bused to the parade that night.

For more information, contact Dick Ward, rgward49@gmail.com.
