Avalon will honor five service branches of the United States military with a special flag raising ceremony.
The ceremony will begin at 11am, and include a United States flag raising ceremony by American Legion
Post #331.
A special Veterans Day message will be delivered by Mayor Pagliughi, who will also provide a
brief history on each branch of the armed forces before flags are raised that represent the Army, Navy,
Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard. Patriotic music will be provided by Frank Brad and Larry Kenney
will play the bagpipes. There will also be a rifle salute and if conditions permit, a Coast Guard flyover may
accompany this special ceremony.
Following Avalon’s ceremony, a second Veterans Day ceremony will be held in Stone Harbor. Then,
American Legion Post #331 will host an open house in Stone Harbor at 12:30pm, at 117th Street and
Second Avenue. That event is open to the public.
