The Indianola Memorial Day Parade is Monday, with several changes to the initial route due to the construction on and around the downtown Indianola square. Those in the parade will meet at the Warren County Administration Building, then travel west on Boston Ave, south on N B St., east on Ashland across the square, south on Howard, then east on Salem, then south on 1st St across Highway 92, then east on 5th Ave to Highway 65/69, then south until the I.O.O.F Cemetery.

After the parade ends, there will be a service on the east side of the cemetery building, where there will be a dedication ceremony for the statue of Sergeant First Class Junior Edwards, the Indianola resident who was awarded a Medal of Honor for his actions during the Korean War, the only Iowa resident to do so.

Parade lineup begins at 9:30am, with the parade beginning at 10am.
