Even with fall colors upon us, Duluth still shines in red, white and blue! Come join us at 10:00 on Saturday morning to see over 150 soldiers from Fort Benning and Fort Campbell march in the 27th Annual Duluth Fall Festival Parade. Conder Flags of Atlanta will be passing out American flags along the parade route, so be sure to come early and get one. Wave your flags and cheer the Soldiers as they pass by. Then gather around at the lawn of the Festival Center for Opening Ceremonies at 11:30. The Soldiers will make an awe-inspiring entrance!

If you'd like a chance to meet some of the troops, stop by Hugs for Our Soldiers booth on Town Green. Take a moment to try on their Kevlar and experience what it is like to wear this protective armor. Seize the opportunity to thank them for their service to our country. Learn how you can send a Christmas stocking to the Fort Benning soldiers who will be deploying to Iraq for their fourth time within days after the festival.

Our many thanks to those who are supporting this memorable weekend for our Soldiers:
