Join the Nation in a Tribute to Our Fallen Heroes
Every Memorial Day at 3:00 PM local time, Americans from coast to coast pause to honor those who gave their lives in service to our country. Taps Across America invites musicians of all ages, abilities, and instruments to unite in a moving, nationwide performance of Taps—the 24-note melody that has honored fallen service members for over 150 years.
Whether you play the trumpet, bugle, trombone, flute, or even wish to sing, your participation ensures that no hero is forgotten. Join thousands in this solemn tribute and be part of a powerful moment of national remembrance.

CITY OF GRAND RAPIDS MEMORIAL DAY PARADE AND CEREMONY presented by:
THE UNITED VETERANS COUNCIL OF KENT COUNTY
On the morning of 26 May 2025 @ 10:00 am the United Veterans Council of Kent County will conduct a parade and ceremony of remembrance to follow at Veterans Memorial Park on Fulton. This is a sponsored event by the City of Grand Rapids. The parade route starts on Lyon at Ottawa and will proceed toward Monroe turning on to Monroe Center. It will then turn south on Ottawa to Louis and proceed to Fulton and head East into Veterans Memorial Park via East Park Place (map below).
The parade will consist of groups and organizations such as American Legion, VFW, Amvets posts and many others, and will be led by the Grand Rapids Police Department’s Honor Guard. The ceremony will honor this year’s Veteran of the Year, the Gold Star Mothers and feature a keynote speaker before concluding with the playing of taps and a 3-round volley.
The council encourages the public to join us in remembering our honored dead. Each year men and women join the military and lay down their lives for this country; we take this time once a year to pay tribute to their sacrifice so that they may not be forgotten.
KCVHG: Your Judge Advocate is out of surgery and doing well. Many thanks for all the prayers and kind wishes.
To all our brothers and sisters, friends and followers: Have a safe, peaceful and Happy Easter.

Veterans joining The American Legion want to feel welcomed. They want to belong to a post that’s inviting and where members greet them the moment they walk through the post doors. And as much as members want to feel welcomed, posts want ideas on how to welcome new members that will create a lasting first impression. To support this need, The American Legion asked posts for best practices on welcoming new members and you answered.
The result is a new member welcome toolkit, which will continue to be updated as new best practices are shared with us.
