Talk of regionalizing recreation began earlier this summer upon Tom DeSiervo’s decision to relinquish his role as Orleans’ director of recreation, culture and community events. DeSiervo remains employed by the town without the title of director.

SouthCoast honoring those who served at these 2026 Veterans Day events

Veterans Day is just around the corner, and communities across the SouthCoast are coming together to thank the neighbors, friends and family members who have served in the Armed Forces. A veteran is defined as “a person who served in the active military, naval, or air service, and who was discharged or released therefrom under conditions other than dishonorable.” U.S. veterans make up less than 6.1% of the total adult population, with about 15.8 million veterans living in the U.S. Originally called Armistice Day , Veterans Day became a legal holiday on May 13, 1938, to be observed each year on Nov. 11. The holiday traces its roots to World War I, the “war to end all wars,” which ended with an armistice signed in Europe on Nov. 11, 1918. Today, it’s a chance to say thank you to the members of our community who have served, and to those who are serving now. Looking for a way to show your gratitude? Here’s a list of events across the SouthCoast where you can mark Veterans Day and celebrate the veterans in your hometown. Acushnet Veterans Day Parade: Nov. 8, 10 a.m. Come cheer on Acushnet’s veterans at the town’s Veterans
