Veterans Day is a time for us to pay our respects to those who have served. For one day, we stand united in respect for our veterans and their service to America. In celebration, the Beaufort County Department of Veterans Affairs is hosting the 2022 Veterans Day Parade through downtown Beaufort on Friday, November 11th.

The parade will begin with the lineup of floats, bands and civic groups at 830am by the Beaufort National Cemetery and offically starts at 10am. It will follow the traditional route and end at the intersection of Boundary and Bladen Streets after a full “loop,” covering Boundary, Carteret, Bay and Bladen Streets.

This year’s parade Grand Marshall has yet to be announced.

In last year’s 2021 parade, more than 40 community groups and individuals submitted applications to participate with floats, bands or walking groups.

Every community group, children’s group, civic organization, and community member is encouraged to show their community spirit and our veterans how much they are appreciated.

In case of inclement weather, the parade will be canceled.
