Memorial Day is a very special day for the Orange Elks Lodge. It is a time we come to honor those men and women who have fought for us and those who paid the ultimate price for our freedom. “Lest We Forget” the 100th Anniversary of the United States entry into World War 1, “The Great War” was the theme for this years ceremony.

The pledge of Allegiance was led by Paul Scherz and Aaron Anderson, of the Orange Elks Lodge Scout Troop #1475 and our newest Eagle scouts. The Orange H S Chambers Singers sang the National Anthem and several patriotic songs including the Salute to our Armed Forces. There were Cannon Salutes to our Fallen, our POW’s and MIA by the Cooper’s Battery & the Richmond Howitzers
