Memorial Day Observance, Londonderry N.H.-Style

Bookmark and Share

On this Memorial Day, we encourage you to take some time to remember our U.S. Soldiers that died in military service. The small town of Londonderry, N.H., does just that in a big-time way. This close-knit, proud New England community traditionally conducts an impressive Memorial Day service that really captures the meaning of this important day.


Today, American Legion Post 27 will hold their annual Memorial Day parade and ceremony in Londonderry (Monday, May 31st), starting at 10 a.m. Here is some more information on this Memorial Day Observance event .


The Londonderry Hometown Online News recently -- and thoughtfully -- contributed a marvelous Memorial Day Observance-Londonderry article to VisitingNewEngland.com. Writer Joe Paradis wrote a tremendous article and editor Steve Young took some phenomenal photos. Check it out by clicking on the link in this paragraph.

How did we get here so quickly -- from the chillingly cold weather in February to the blazing hot heat and... WHAT?!!!... Memorial Day Weekend just a few short days away?

The "unofficial" start of summer means lobster, ice cream, beaches and other warm weather New England delights.   If you're looking for some travel ideas, we encourage you to visit our "Top 30 Memorial Day Weekend New England Travel Ideas." Here, we list 30 New England towns and cities that feature great summer appeal -- from coastal getaways to beautiful mountain towns. Some destinations are obvious but ultimately worthy like Plymouth, Mass., and Old Orchard Beach, Maine, but we include some hidden gems, too, like Old Lyme, Conn., and Watch Hill, R.I. In other words, a little something for everyone.

Happy New England travels, and please write us about any New England summer destinations you'd like us to cover!
