Town of Davie, Boy Scouts mark Memorial Day with parade, ceremony

The town of Davie and the Scoutmasters Camporee Committee South Florida Council of the Boy Scouts of America are making Memorial Day more than a reason to barbeque.

All patriotic Americans are invited to a parade and memorial service to honor the sacrifices made so that the United States could be free, the organizer’s flier says.

The parade starts at 10:15 a.m. at the Davie Fire Administration, 6905 Davie Rd. and ends about a half mile east at Bergeron Rodeo Grounds, 4271 Davie Rd., where the ceremony will be held.

This is not a political event, the flier says.
