Memorial Day Motorcade in Bay Ridge on 5/25
Every year, Bay Ridge has a Memorial Day Parade, but this year it was cancelled due to the pandemic.
Thank you to our neighbors who kept the tradition of this community going, even during the pandemic!
There will be a Memorial Day motorcade in Bay Ridge on Monday, May 25, 2020 instead.
The #MemorialDay parade in #BayRidge this year was adapted into a small, safe, socially distant car parade to the Brooklyn VA Hospital to honor those who served and sacrificed. #1010WINS (1/3) pic.twitter.com/tYC9ST3WpP
