Veterans of the American Legion Post 52 led the Memorial Day Parade on a sunny May 26 in Scarsdale Village. The Scarsdale High School Marching Band came out to serenade veterans, scouts, police, firefighters, emergency volunteers and even the Little League in a charming display of civic pride. The event opened with a ceremony at Boniface Circle led by former Mayor Miriam Flisser and members of the American Legion. A color guard displayed the flags and the parade began with some traveling on foot and others in golf carts, cars and emergency vehicles.
On hand were Mayor Bob Steves, SVAC President David Raizen, Trustee Deb Pekarek, former Village Trustee Jon Mark, Police Chief John Brogan, Deputy Village Manager Steve Pappalardo, Assemblywoman Amy Paulin and a host of parents, children and most important, Scarsdale veterans. See the photos below:
