Annual Veterans Day Parade is cancelled, all other programs still on as scheduled By Cindy Aguirre-Herrera (Seguin) -- Today's annual Veterans Day Parade has been cancelled. Now although the parade is no longer on the schedule, the Veterans Day Program that traditionally follows is still on as planned but has been relocated from Veterans Park to the American Legion Hall. The changes for today's program were announced Friday by the Doug Herrle Disabled American Veterans (DAV) Chapter #61. DAV officials say the potential for rain and chilly weather played as factors in making the decision to cancel the parade. The DAV plays host for the event each year bringing together veterans from all the various organizations in the area. DAV Commander Linda Truax, says they apologize for any inconvenience that this might have caused but felt it was the right thing to do.

our veterans and it's not just the veterans but the leaders in veterans court and this includes anything from our families, our caregivers, our city which has been outstanding, businesses such as Home Depot, the United Way, the Golden Corral and really special to me as the commander of the DAV is our auxiliary unit. Each individual military service organization has a great support channel through our auxiliaries and they in many ways lead the support that we need to help others," said Truax.
