Memorial Day Parade – May 31, 2010

remember-our-vetsLong Beach is known for one of the largest and finest Memorial Day parades in all of New York.  The pride of our community is also some of the finest around and the streets are filled with our neighbors who show their support and thanks to those who volunteer their services and in some cases regrettably their lives to keep us all safe.  Marching from the West End to City Hall are many community service providers, organizations, schools and our public service and safety providers.

For the Long Beach Auxiliary Police, this is one of our largest events.  We not only assisted in traffic and crowd control, but marched in the parade as well.

track_runner_silhouetteThe start of the fun and exciting summer season in Long Beach kickstarts with the 34th annual City Manager’s Manager’s 10-Mile Trophy Run, “A Salute to Our Veterans,” on Sunday, May 30th at 8:00 a.m.

 

One of the biggest on-road events on the Long Beach calendar, the City Manager’s Race requires all of the Auxiliary Police resources.  The race crosses over 60 intersections as hundreds of runners traverse the City streets and boardwalk.

Great weather brought out many runners and supportive spectators throughout the course.  A major event that flowed flawlessly due to the training and services of the Auxiliary Police, Special Police and the Long Beach Police Department.
