Rockville’s annual Memorial Day and Veterans Day ceremonies each include a member of the military as a featured speaker. Rockville and Montgomery County residents who have retired from, or currently serve in, the United States military are eligible to take part.
The Memorial Day ceremony will be held Monday, May 27. The Veterans Day ceremony will be held Monday, Nov. 11. Volunteer speakers must be comfortable speaking in public and must prepare a five- to seven-minute speech about their experiences in the armed forces, including what it means to serve and to honor those who have served.
