Local businesses and organizations can show their gratitude to American veterans by participating in this year’s Veterans Day Parade, noon-1 p.m. Nov. 9.

Pierre Claeyssens Veterans Foundation (PCVF), parade sponsor, is accepting participants to make this the biggest and best Veterans Day Parade. The event will feature World War II vehicles, re-enactors and heroes from all branches of the military, and local marching bands.

Community groups, clubs and local businesses can participate. PCVF has created an online registration form, making it easy for groups and individuals to be a part of the 2019 Veterans Day Parade. Registration closes Nov. 1.

To register, visit https://www.pcvf.org/sign-up-for-the-veterans-day-parade.

The march will begin at the intersection of East Sola and State streets and end at the Carriage and Western Art Museum of Santa Barbara, 129 Castillo St.

Pierre Claeyssens Veterans Foundation honors the men and women who have served in uniform at any time. PCVF does this by supporting veterans and active duty members, and related partner organizations, in Santa Barbara and Ventura counties, as well as preserving military history and legacy.

The foundation works to uphold Pierre Claeyssens’s vision that those who have served are “Never Forgotten.” PCVF is funded entirely by private donations. For more information, visit www.pcvf.org or call 805-259-4394.
