There use to be a much larger turn out and we are trying to bring that back and reignite more Town Spirit. Line up will be at 7:15 am with step off at 7:30 am and the ceremony beginning at 8:00 am.\nThis parade\, which kicks off at 7:30am\, includes Lexington civic organizations with a special emphasis on youth. Think Boy Scouts\, Girl Scouts\, Cubs\, Brownies\, IAL\, CAAL and many others. We also have guests of honor\, award recipients Lex Minute Men and LHS band participate.\nThe Sunrise Youth Parade ends on the Battle Green for the Patriots’ Day Ceremony and the parade participants are all the participants in the Ceremony.
