NF Memorial Day Parade returns, seeks Bands and Organizations to Participate
SharefXin

Yes, there will be a Memorial Day Parade 2023.

On May 27th starting at 10:00 am, there will be a Memorial Day Parade in Niagara Falls. It will not be down Pine Avenue as in years past, but will run right through Hyde Park, down Robbins Drive from Linwood Avenue to the Veterans Monument.

There is ample parking at the stadium and by the monument. With plenty of shade to sit under, it should be a pleasant outing for everyone.

*******************************************************************************************************

This year, instead of flags along Pine Ave., KIA Memorial Roadmarch, Hands Healing Heroes and NF City Councilman Ken Tompkins in conjunction with The City of Niagara Falls bring to you:

🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 THE FIELD OF FLAGS 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

It will be located in the grassy area between Pine Ave. and The Veteran’s Monument in Hyde Park. The flags are 3’ x 5’ on 8’ poles and will have a memoriam plaque. Flags are $25 each. Order must be in by May 15.

*******************************************************************************************************

We are currently looking for groups, bands, and organizations to participate. Feel free to email me at [email protected] for information.

Sponsors are needed and very much appreciated.

Let us honor those who gave all in defense of our great country.

A ceremony at the Veteran’s Monument will commence at the end of the parade.

Brought to you by KIA Memorial Roadmarch, Hands Healing Heros, the City of Niagara Falls, Niagara Falls Veteran Monument Commission, and Councilman Kenny Tompkins.

Thank you,

Kenny Tompkins

Far Too Often, Promises Have Proved Empty; Niagara Falls Needs Progress And Strategic Planning

By tony Farina · August 4, 2026

By Tony Farina Promises are nice and they bring hope for the future. But unfortunately, most of the time, promises have fallen flat for the City of Niagara Falls, some succeeding but many turning out to be empty promises and major disappointments. At this point, Niagara Falls doesn’t need more failed promises. What the city needs is progress to build a better future and a plan to make it work. City leadership must bring it all together. While there are promises to build a better future on the table and being talked about, like Centennial Park and the Niagara Digital

Governor Issues Response To McMurray’s Letter on Slag Concerns

By tony Farina · August 4, 2026

By Tony Farina The radioactive slag bubbling up across Niagara County in recent weeks, triggering state and federal testing and some remedial work and family relocations, is the ongoing and seemingly never-ending legacy of the environmental desecration of the past 100-plus years by massive corporations dumping toxic waste that was the subject of Christen Civiletto’s book Thundering Waters. “What we have again is an environmental storm,” said attorney and former Grand Island Supervisor Nate McMurray, a candidate for election to the 45th District State Assembly seat now open because of the retirement of Angelo Morinello. McMurray will run for the
