MEMORIAL DAY PARADE & CEREMONY CANCELLED

Due to the forecasted weather, the Lawrence Township Memorial Day Parade and Ceremony scheduled for Saturday, May 23 has been canceled.

There is no rain date.

While we are disappointed that we cannot come together as a community to honor our fallen heroes, Memorial Day remains a time to remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.

Thank you for your understanding.
