## About

Elk Grove's Veterans Day parade is organized by American Legion Post 233, the Veterans of Foreign Wars and Marine Corps League Detachment 1238. The parade steps off at 11:11 a.m. from the Cosumnes CSD building on Elk Grove Boulevard and travels via Elk Grove-Florin Road to Elk Grove Regional Park. Families line the route to wave to veterans, marching units and community groups, which makes it a good way to talk with children about what the day honors. Arrive before the step-off to find a spot along Elk Grove Boulevard; the city's listing runs from 10:00 a.m. to noon.
