The parade starts at 1100 on 11Nov2024.   We will have the participants start staging around 0930-1000 to mitigate traffic issues.  

The parade route is from 13Ave and Broadway to 1Ave and Broadway.  The Tennessee National guard will be there to assist everyone to their place in the lineup, tell them when to go and direct them off the parade route.

We are excited to invite you to a special event that celebrates our community and your incredible service. Join us on November 9th from 12 PM to 3 PM at 5546 Blue Hole Rd, Antioch, TN, as we come together to prepare our Veterans Day parade float. This float will be a powerful symbol of our gratitude and a way to highlight the profound impact veterans like you have on our community.

Your dedication and sacrifices have shaped the lives of many, and this float will serve as a visual tribute to that enduring legacy. By participating in this preparation day, you'll help create a striking representation of our appreciation and help raise awareness about the vital role veterans play in our lives.

For any questions or additional details, please reach out to Platoon Leader Jamie Webb at jwebb@missioncontinues.com.

Thank you for your continued service and support. We look forward to honoring our community and celebrating our veterans together!

Warm regards, The Mission Continues Nashville Platoon
