The Cannon Ridge Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution Presents
The Remembrance Parade

Parade for Cannon Ridge Chapter DAR

The Cannon Ridge Chapter, National Society Daughters of the American Revolution, is pleased to invite you to the Remembrance Parade.  This America 250 commemoration honors the Patriots and veterans who supported the cause of American independence, and remembers the sacrifices made at the Battle of Ridgefield. The Parade is free and open to all.  We encourage everyone in our community to join as we pause to reflect on our shared American history during the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence.

The parade will begin at the War Memorial in front of Jesse Lee Memorial United Methodist Church on Main Street ending at the Battle of Ridgefield memorial plaque in Ballard Park.  A wreath laying ceremony will be held honoring:

  • Patriots and Veterans who supported American Independence, particularly at the Battle of Ridgefield  
  • Lieutenant Colonel Abraham Gould, a Gold’s Dragoon killed during the Battle of Ridgefield 
  • British troops who remain buried on the battlefield, who fell in honorable service to their King
