The City of La Palma will be hosting its annual Memorial Day Ceremony on Monday, May 27, 2019. A musical interlude, performed by John F. Kennedy High School and Walker Junior High School bands, will begin at 9 a.m. with the Ceremony following in front of City Hall (7822 Walker Street) at the Eternal Flame. Due to the solemn and reflective nature of the event, Walker Street will be closed between Thelma Avenue and La Palma Avenue from 8:45 a.m. until approximately 11 a.m.
Each year, the City of La Palma honors those who have served in the military either at home or abroad, especially those who sacrificed their lives so that those who remain may continue to live in freedom. Please join the City of La Palma and the Community Activities and Beautification Committee in honoring their memory. If you are a resident of La Palma and military veteran, please contact the City to reserve special seating as we would like to recognize the contributions that you have personally made.
