Several Lawrence events, including an annual parade and a wreath-laying ceremony, are scheduled around Veterans Day this year to honor those who have served.
Despite freezing temperatures, Lawrence community members gathered on Massachusetts Street to honor veterans in the annual parade, which made a return Saturday morning after a two-year hiatus.
The University of Kansas is planning several events to honor veterans in the coming days, starting with the Salute to Service football game this Saturday.
Instead of a parade downtown, the Lawrence Veterans Day Parade this year will be a “thank you” event ahead of KU football’s matchup with K-State on Saturday, Nov. 6.
