The Veterans Day Parade is this morning in Downtown Butler.
No parking will be allowed on Main Street from Wayne to Fulton starting at 8 a.m. and continuing until noon.
Any veteran interested in participating is asked to meet at the intersection with Penn Street before the parade begins at 10:40 a.m. A moment of silence will be held at 11 a.m. honoring the veterans who have passed away.
The normal detour around Main will be in effect using McKean to go North and Washington to go South.
Slippery Rock University is also marking the occasion with their annual Veterans Day ceremony today.
The public is invited to the Russell Wright Alumni House at 11 a.m. for a ceremony that includes raising the colors, wreath-laying, and a 21-gun salute conducted by cadets from SRU’s Army ROTC program.
U.S. Army Veteran and 1972 SRU graduate John Butch who served in the Vietnam War will also speak as part of this gathering.
Veterans and their guests are invited to lunch at the Alumni House following the ceremony.
