Naugatuck and Prospect will again observe Memorial Day with parades, a year after the COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of the traditional commemorations.
The return of the parades comes after the state last week lifted most of the remaining coronavirus-restrictions.
In Naugatuck, the parade will be shorter than residents are used to seeing. Rather than starting in the Union City section of the borough, the parade will step off at 11:30 a.m. May 31 downtown at the intersection of Maple and Water streets. The parade route will head down Maple Street, Old Firehouse Road, Rubber Avenue and Church Street to the Naugatuck Green for a ceremony at 12 p.m.
