A day to remember, first and foremost! Remember the thousands of men and women who fought for our country - our freedom - our rights - our lives! OUR HEROES!!
These great people will be honored all over the country this weekend in different ways, including our own backyard bar-b-ques.
If you are looking for something to do right here in Aiken - here are some ideas:
Aiken's Annual Memorial Day Parade will be on Saturday, 5/23 at 1pm - Starting downtown on Park Avenue at 1:00. The parade will head up Park Avenue towards Laurens Street - then turn up Laurens Street and head down the center of town. Come on out and show your support and thanks.
How about a Polo match on Sunday! 3pm at the Whitney Field on Mead Ave in Aiken's Horse District.
Monday evening you can wind down your weekend with a FREE CONCERT on the lawn at Hopelands Gardens. Monday at 7pm enjoy the Aiken Civic Ballet. (bring your lawn chair or blanket! )
However you decide to celebrate and honor our heroes - be safe!
Have a great weekend :)

Aiken, SC ~ One of the most beautiful cities that I have had the honor to live in. I'm serious. I fell in love with Aiken the first time I visited. I'll tell you all about it in a blog, sometime.
