As we honor Memorial Day today, May 25, 2026, the Veterans Memorial of Stillwater invites the community to a special ceremony at 11:30 AM. The event will pay tribute to the St. Croix Valley area casualties of war and feature performances by the Croix Chordsmen and the Stillwater Area High School band. Navy EOD Chief (ret) Nichole M. Kelly will serve as the guest speaker. A flag raising and flyover by the T-6 Thunder Flight Team is scheduled for noon. Attendees are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets, as seating is limited. Refreshments will be provided.
