Please join the Union Cemetery Historical Society and KC Parks on Monday, May 27, for an old-fashioned Memorial Day service. The thirty-minute ceremony will be held at the flagpole in the middle of Union Cemetery, Kansas City’s oldest public cemetery, at 11:30am. Participants in this tribute to those who have served our country include local Cub and Boy Scouts, re-enactor groups, local politicians and others. A cookies and lemonade reception will follow the ceremony, hosted by the Civil War Roundtable of Western Missouri.
