Patriotism is very important and
the City of North Miami takes the memory of this country’s
heroes very seriously. Each Memorial and Veterans Day there
is a ceremony to honor our fallen heroes’ memories and to
teach the youth of today the important of freedom, patriotism
and America.
- Memorial & Veterans Day Ceremonies
Each ceremony is held on the legally observed date and held
at the Griffing Park at 12220 Griffing Blvd.
These events are free to the public and a great lesson in
history for today’s youth. A formal program and presentation
of colors is done, shots are fired by the North Miami Police
Honor Guard and a beautiful patriotic medley is sung. The
ceremony begins promptly at 10:00 AM.
