CANASTOTA, NY – The Village of Canastota, in conjunction with American Legion Post #140, is pleased to announce the annual Memorial Day parade and remembrance ceremony.

This year’s parade will begin at 10:00 a.m. on Memorial Day, which is Monday, May 26. The parade steps off at the intersection of Wilson Avenue and N.
