By Oak Ridge Today Staff Leave a Comment

The 11th Annual Anderson County Veterans Day Parade will be held on Saturday, November 11, at 10 a.m. in downtown Clinton.

The parade has been announced by the Clinton American Legion Post #172 in partnership with The Veterans of Foreign Wars Post #12051 and AMVETS Post #2.

This year’s theme is the “Appreciation for All Anderson County Veterans,” a press release said.

The parade will start on Market Street in Clinton and move along Main Street, passing in front of the Anderson County Courthouse. The parade line-up will be in the parking lot on Commerce Street a half-hour before the parade.

“All veterans are invited to participate, and everyone is encouraged to come out and support our veterans—past, present, and future—at this wonderful parade,” the press release said.

There is no registration fee, but donations are accepted to assist with advertising, the press release said.

For more information or to sign up for the parade, contact Leon Jaquet at (865) 556-0997 or Mickey Vickery at (865) 399-5301 or any member of the American Legion Post #172, VFW Post #12051, or AMVET Post #2 to pick up a registration form.
