Larchmont residents and Mamaroneck-area neighbors are invited to gather Thursday, May 21, at 7 p.m. for the annual Larchmont-Mamaroneck Memorial Day Parade, a community procession meant to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice for the rest of us.

Participants will begin lining up at the Chatsworth Avenue Bridge before the march through the village. The parade will move along Palmer Avenue and Larchmont Avenue and end at Village Hall, where the observance will continue with a Memorial Day Wreath Service at Constitution Park after the parade.

The annual event gives the community a set time and place to come together, and this year’s schedule keeps the focus on remembrance from the first step of the march to the final wreath service. For Larchmont and nearby Mamaroneck residents, the evening is both a public tribute and a local tradition.

That sequence matters because the parade is not just a route through town; it is the lead-in to the wreath service, which carries the day’s message forward after the march ends. The question has already been answered by the event itself: the community will gather to honor the fallen, first in motion and then in quiet reflection at Constitution Park.
