With the stirring sounds of the Bluffton High School Marching Band, the May 25 Bluffton Memorial Day Parade drew local residents from Town Hall, along Main and Grove streets to ceremonies at Maple Grove Cemetery.
Coordinated by Bluffton American Legion Post 382, the annual event had an excellent turnout on a mild and foggy morning. When two fighter jets performed a flyover at 10:30 a.m., they could be heard but not seen.
American Legion Post 382 will host Bluffton's 2026 Memorial Day Parade and ceremonies at Maple Grove Cemetery on Monday, May 25. The parade will begin at 9:30 a.m. at Bluffton Town Hall and proceed down Main and Grove streets. The ceremony at Maple Grove will begin at 10:00 a.m.
