The latest installment of Rogersville’s year-long celebration of America 250 is coming up Saturday, Nov. 7, when the town will host a Veterans Parade along Main Street downtown. The event aspires to bring veterans, families and community members together for a day of patriotism, remembrance, and gratitude. The parade was announced in late summer, and planning has been ongoing for a few months now. The first evidence of the big day will take place Saturday, following the town’s annual Trunk or Treat celebration for Halloween. “The banners will go up Saturday night, right after Trunk or Treat,” said event coordinator Beth Metz, referring to the veteran recognition banners that have been offered throughout September and October for family and friends of local veterans to recognize them for their service. These personalized banners will be displayed on Main Street throughout the month of November. They each feature one veteran and may be kept by the sponsor following the display. The parade will take place at 11 a.m., beginning at East Rogersville Baptist Church and travel west on Main Street to First Baptist Church of Rogersville.

Newport mayor urges vote for three incumbent council members

To the editor: Newport has a good thing going. Let’s keep it that way. I strongly urge voters to re-elect Newport city councilors Robert Emond, Angel Aparicio-Reyes, and CM Hall.
