PROCESSION CANCELED DUE TO POTENTIAL OF INCLEMENT WEATHER
The Fort McHenry Guard in 1814 uniforms, a contingent of National Park Service Rangers in their distinctive “green & gray”, along with National Park Trust Mascot Buddy Bison will parade a replica of the big “Star-Spangled Banner” flag.
Local residents and visitors are invited to “find their park” by cheering the procession and waving flags as they walk Hull Street to Fort Avenue and end at Fort McHenry’s gate.
