The Town of Huntingdon, Tenn. is hosting its 22nd Annual Memorial Day Ceremony at 10 a.m. on Monday, May 26, 2025, at Thomas Park on East Main Street in Huntingdon. We will remember those who died in military service to our country, as well as our Veterans and active military personnel. There will be reserved seating for Veterans and a red carnation for every Veteran who registers at the registration table prior to the ceremony. Registration for Veterans begins at 9:15.
Major General (Ret.) Tommy H. Baker will be the featured speaker.
Bring your lawn chairs and join us in this annual event. What better way to begin the Memorial Day than with a gathering of friends and family to remember those who faithfully served and to honor those who remain and those still serving.
In the event of rain, the ceremony will be held at the Huntingdon Middle School Gymnasium.
For questions or additional information about the ceremony, contact Huntingdon City Hall at 731-986-2900.
