Huntingdon to Honor Fallen Heroes with Memorial Services

HUNTINGDON — As West Tennessee prepares for the upcoming holiday weekend, members of the American Legion Auxiliary Unit #47, Huntingdon, and the Town of Huntingdon are issuing a heartfelt reminder that Memorial Day is about more than just the unofficial start of summer.

The community is invited to gather on Memorial Day for a series of commemorative events hosted by the Town of Huntingdon and American Legion Auxiliary Unit #47:

1. Flag Presentation: The Town of Huntingdon’s formal Memorial Day ceremony is at the Huntingdon Middle School gymnasium, starting at 10 a.m. 
2. Community Fish Fry: Following the ceremony, American Legion Auxiliary Unit #47 will host a fish fry in the Cash Saver parking lot for residents and veterans alike. The fish fry is expected to begin at 11 a.m.

American Legion Auxiliary Unit #47 remains active in the Carroll County community, meeting the first Monday of every month at 6 p.m. in the lower level of the Carroll County Courthouse.
