KYLE, TEXAS – The City of Kyle in partnership with VFW Post 12058 and AMVETS will be hosting a Veterans Day Parade and commemoration event on Saturday, Nov. 13 to honor local veterans.
The parade will start at 12 p.m. Parade participants will begin at VFW Post 12058 and travel west along Center Street. The parade route will conclude at Gregg-Clarke Park. After the parade, participants and citizens are invited to attend the commemoration event and festivities.

“We are excited to host this year’s Veterans Day Parade to honor Kyle’s veterans and their families,” Kyle Parks and Recreation Director Mariana Espinoza said. “We hope the community will join us in commemorating our local veterans for their sacrifices and willingness to serve."
The best location to view the Veterans Day Parade is on either side of Center Street between VFW Post 12058 and Gregg-Clarke Park. To keep everyone safe, the city is asking attendees to stay on sidewalks or grassy areas along Center Street and not to run into the street when the parade is going by.
