Youth Programming
Memorial Day Parade
School-age kids, teens, and parents can march with the Menomonee Falls Library to promote our summer activities with a banner and flyers.
Kids under 10 must be accompanied by an adult.
Participants should wear a colorful t-shirt to go with the hats and leis we will provide.
Each parent must provide a phone number where they could be immediately reached during the parade if necessary.
Exact time & assembly location will be provided at a later date. Parents are responsible for picking up their children after the parade at Neu’s Hardware in the River Court shopping center, where each will receive a treat for participating.
Please sign up by May 25 in person in the Youth Library or by calling the Youth Reference desk at 532-8915.
