The Bridesburg Memorial Day Parade is one of the oldest and longest Memorial Day Parades in Pennsylvania. After World War II, Bridesburg resident, Edward Dubeck’s mission in life was to make sure people remember all of the people who didn’t make it home from the war.
In the late 1970’s, the United Veterans of Bridesburg was founded by Bridesburg residents, Edward DuBeck, John ‘Moose’ Muszynski, and the Commanders of both VFW Post 2 and American Legion Post 821 to continue to remember those who served in defense of our American values.
The mission of the Bridesburg Memorial Day 5K is to help raise funds to be sure that this special parade will continue to honor all who have served, past and present. Donations are greatly appreciated.
Raceday registration begins at 7:15 AM.
The Run will begin at 8:30 AM.
