"Michigan's Fallen" Foot Float

May 28, 2012 will mark the 94th consecutive year that the City of Ferndale has held a parade and ceremony paying tribute to those who have paid the ultimate sacrifice in serving their country.

This Memorial Day Parade will not only be a historical event for the City of Ferndale, it will also include a tribute to the men and women who gave their lives serving Michigan’s military units in the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts.

In honor of the men and women who have given their lives while serving in Iraq or Afghanistan additional volunteers are needed to carry individual placards and accompanying banners and flags.

Except for those currently in uniform serving the military all other participants must wear plain red, white, or blue colored tops (shirt, sweater, or jacket).  WITHOUT EXCEPTIONS – NO POLITICAL SLOGANS, BADGES, BUTTONS, STATEMENTS, OR PROMOTION OF ANY KIND, WILL BE ALLOWED.

Additional information regarding time, place for gathering, parking, etc. will be provided to volunteers at a later date.
