Menashe Miller, Lakewood Deputy Mayor and Liaison to the Veterans Advisory Committee, has announced that Lakewood is having its annual Memorial Day Parade on Monday, May 30, 2022, along with services at the All War Memorial Amphitheater at Lake Carasaljo, North Lake Drive, Lakewood.

A wreath will be placed on Lake Carasaljo honoring our veterans, and there will be a 21-Gun Salute and Taps.
