A HUGE thanks to all those who attended, participated in, and supported Auburn’s 59th annual Veterans Parade - it was a WONDERFUL day in Auburn!

Thousands of spectators lined Main Street in Auburn to see nearly 160 parade entries, comprised of just shy of 4,000 parade participants. The parade featured a C-17 & Huey Helicopter flyover, military units, veteran marching groups, honor guards and ROTC units, antique military vehicles and equipment, and patriotic music from 12 marching bands.

*KOMO 4 News* livestreamed the Parade – check out the video of the full parade and event photos [ https://komonews.com/news/local/auburn-veterans-day-parade-observance-annual-2024-route-watch-livestream-celebration-remembrance-military ].
