Memorial Day in Murray County
Memorial Day has come to represent the kick-off of summer, a season of barbecue, beaches and vacations. But the original intent behind the holiday, officially proclaimed on  May 5, 1868 , was to set aside time to pause and remember the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice while serving our nation.

To honor their legacy, take a moment to attend one of the local events taking place on Monday, May 30th.   In addition remember to fly your flags at half staff until noon on in remembrance of the patriotism and valor of those who served our country.
