The actual Veterans Day is Monday, November 11, but the Veterans Day Parade is this Saturday, November 9 in downtown Texarkana.

The salute to the Veterans of our area begins at 11 AM Saturday morning at the corner of Hazel and Broad on the Arkansas side.

You will see Church groups, Scouts, Youth organizations, Clubs, marching bands but mainly, you will see Texarkana area Veterans.

The theme for the parade this year is "American Legion - 100 Years."
