Menomonee Falls Memorial Day Happenings

It will be a busy weekend in the Village of Menomonee Falls!

On Saturday, May 28th, the Knights of Columbus will be hosting their 4th annual, Lucky Duck Derby. The Derby will be held at Mill Pond Park. Stop by and watch thousands of little yellow duckies 'race' to the finish line - just before the dam. Tickets to sponsor the ducks are available for purchase at the Knights of Columbus Clubhouse on Water Street, or the Village Centre Office. Sponsor a ducky and you could be a winner! Food and beverages will be available at the Mill Pond Park pavilion beginning at noon. Food, beverage, music and games for the kids will be available from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. at the Knights of Columbus Clubhouse on Water Street. Call 262-255-2241 with questions, or to sponsor a ducky.

Also on Saturday, May 28th there will be a Sidewalk Market full of bargains, overstock and discounted items from local vendors. If art is something that interests you, then stop on by "Art on the Walk," where you will see works from local area artists along Main and Mill Streets. Both events will be going on from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Come and find one-of-a-kind treasures.

On Monday, May 30th, the Annual Memorial Day Parade is sure to have something for the whole family. The parade starts at Harrison and Main Streets, and heads west on Main Street to Grand Avenue then north on Grand Ave to Neu''s. The parade kicks off at 10 a.m. so get there early to get a great seat.

Memorial Day represents one day of national awareness and reverence, honoring those Americans who died while defending our Nation and its values. Whatever you chose to do this weekend, please take a moment to remember!
