Memorial Day 2010 in NJ

In honor of Memorial Day, neighboring Fanwood and Scotch Plains, N.J. hold an annual parade along a 1.2 mile route from downtown Scotch Plains to the center of Fanwood.

This year Christine joined other members of the SP-F High School marching band in playing the "Star Spangled Banner" during ceremonies before the parade and Andy marched with fellow members of Boy Scout Troop 33. Julie, who is service unit manager for the Girl Scouts of Fanwood and Scotch Plains, marched with more than 200 Girl Scouts and parent leaders from around the two towns.
