Ho-Ho-Kus April 28, 2010 THE VILLADOM TIMES III • Page 7 VFW Post seeks aid with Memorial Day Parade by Jennifer Crusco The Washington Elm VFW Post 192, which serves Ho-Ho-Kus and Ridgewood, is seeking aid with its plans for the Memorial Day Parade and solemn observance in Ho-Ho-Kus set for Monday, May 31. Last week, Post Commander Stanley Kober, who is also serving as parade chairman, told the Ho-Ho-Kus Council that his group plans to show a 15-minute video as part of this year’s ceremony. This presentation will require two 50- or 60-inch screens with a small sound system and a computer. Kober said he checked with a local vendor who said the set-up would cost $750. “For the record, that’s more than lawyers get,” Mayor Thomas Randall quipped. He then suggested that Kober contact a borough resident who might be able to help. Councilman Kevin Crossley recommended that Kober contact a local electronics store that sells plasma televisions. Kober subsequently noted that he is putting out a call for veterans to bring rifles and take part in the firing party, veterans who will serve in the color guard, and two buglers, trumpet, or cornet players to perform “Echo Taps.” He added that he also encourages the community to attend the ceremony and parade. “Everyone is invited to attend this solemn parade and ceremony,” Kober said. “All veterans and all military personnel are asked to march wearing their respective uniforms. U.S. Memorial Flags will be given to all vet- erans and military personnel attending. Marchers will form up at Ardmore and Sheridan Avenues at 10 a.m. and the parade will step off promptly at 10:30 a.m., proceeding south on Sheridan Avenue to the Veterans’ Memorial Park on East Franklin Turnpike. At the Veterans’ Memorial Park, a solemn observance will be conducted to honor the service men and women who paid the ultimate price in all military actions to date as well as to honor all our troops presently serving around the globe.” Special music and speakers are scheduled for the ceremony. Those who are able to assist the VFW are invited to contact Kober at (201) 445-1121 or Parade Co-chair Ray Rebholz at (201) 445-1526.
