Local high school marching bands, several military vehicles, first responders, elected officials, civic groups and vintage cars will be featured in the parade.
The parade will conclude with a ceremony held outside Toms River’s Town Hall with speakers and honored guests, a rifle salute and the placing of the wreath on the veterans monument.
The parade is sponsored by the George P. Vanderveer American Legion Post 129.
