Plumsted parade rescheduled for July 4

PLUMSTED – The Plumsted Memorial Day parade, which was scheduled for May 30, but was cancelled on May 29 because of a forecast of bad weather for the following day, has been rescheduled for Independence Day, July 4.

“Many people were very disappointed when the parade was cancelled, so we decided to reschedule it for Independence Day, our nation’s 240th birthday,” Mayor Jack Trotta said.

Main Street New Egypt Executive Director Peter Ylvisaker said the parade will begin at 10 a.m. at the intersection of North Main Street and Bright Road. Participants will march down Main Street to Jacobstown Road, and follow Jacobstown Road until they reach Meadowbrook Lane and American Legion Post 455.

Ylvisaker said the grand marshal for the parade will be retired U.S. Army First Sgt. Ellis B. Dailey.

Dailey, who has lived in Plumsted since 1957, served in the Army for three decades. He served in North Africa and Italy during World War II and was wounded in 1945. He was eventually stationed in Germany and South Korea before retiring from the Army in 1972.

Bright Road will be closed to non-parade vehicles from 9:15-10 a.m. North Main Street, Main Street and Jacobstown Road to Meadowbrook Lane will be closed from 10-11 a.m.

Following the parade, American Legion Post 455 will host a public service to honor those who died in service to the nation.
