2027 North Shore Veterans & First Responders Parade

From the Lynn Veterans Council: The Lynn Veterans Council will be holding a parade to remember, honor, and never forget those individuals who lost their lives in that terrible terrorist attack on the World Trade Center on 9/11.  It is the 25th anniversary for the Global War on Terror, and of course the 250th Birthday of America.

Please note: this parade was rescheduled from September 2026, due to inclement weather.

There will be multiple marching bands, Grand Marshals (Veterans Grand Marshal, Police Grand Marshal, and Fire Grand Marshal), military vehicles (including a tank), local Junior ROTC Programs, numerous military organizations, numerous police vehicles (old & new), numerous fire trucks, and trolleys to have veterans and first responders that cannot walk the parade, but want to be in the parade so they can ride.

The Lynn Veterans Council is currently looking for volunteers, marchers, sponsors, and donations – more details will be announced closer to the event.
