The big event in Allendale this upcoming weekend is the Allendale Memorial Day Parade. Every year for as long as I have lived in town(42 years) the Allendale Veterans of Foreign Wars and the American Legion have been organizing the parade. It is followed by a Memorial Service at Memorial Park.
The parade will step off at 9:30 am at Tallman Place on Myrtle Ave. The marchers will go through town, past the A&P parking lot, make a right on West Orchard and proceed to Memorial Park for the service. Usually there are all the town organizations represented including the Veterans, cub scouts, boy scouts, brownies and girl scouts, Womens's Club, Holiday Observers as well as the Brookside school band. Old time cars, the Fire Department engines, and police departemetn also can be seen in the parade.
Following the service at the park, the Allendale Volunteer Fire Department serves refreshments at the Fire House, usually hot dogs and soda. It is a great time to get out and meet your town neighbors!
