Upcoming Events

Castleton-Schodack Memorial Day Parade - Monday, May 28

This year's Memorial Day Parade will step off on Monday, May 28, at 10:00 am. The parade will begin at the corner of Boltwood and Seaman Avenue and will conclude with a brief ceremony at the Mountain View Cemetery. There will be five divisions consisting of church, civic, school, and community volunteer organizations with the VFW Post 7337 leading the parade. As we take time to honor those who served our country, we would like to show our appreciation to any veteran or Gold Star Mother in our community by asking that they join us in the special seating area that has been reserved for them during the ceremony.

This year the Grand Marshall will be Mr. George Flanders Sr. The Community Appreciation Award will be going to Mr. Al Van Nederynen for his many years of volunteer service to our community. Our guest speaker will be former Viet Nam veteran Dennis Dowds.
