Veterans Parade Slated in Riverside Nov 18 Join the Riverside Community for a morning of family fun to honor the veterans. Since 2005, A Salute to Veterans Parade has been successful with thousands of participants, and even more in attendance. The parade celebrates those men and women who served to protect the freedoms that we treasure. A Salute to Veterans Parade honors veterans of all ages and eras. Parades over the past years have featured over 100 entries that included marching bands, flyovers, equestrian units, color guards, marching units, antique cars, military vehicles, floats, and of course, veterans. This year, for the first time, an expo that will include static displays and organizations whose services or products are of unique interest and value to veterans, will take place near the Riverside County Courthouse immediately following the parade. The parade committee is seeking sponsors, volunteers, expo participants, and parade participants. Those that are interested in contributing to this important event are encouraged to contact Jeffrey Crumbaker at patriciang2@aol.com.
