Immediately following the parade we will continue on the Noel Field with a family fun day to remember. Sit on a tank, check out the fire truck, get a glimpse inside a helicopter, check out the car show and inflatable attractions and grab lunch at a food truck. All this fun packed into a beautiful day celebrating our Armed Forces. This is an event you don't want to miss!!
