The city’s annual Memorial Day ceremony, which is usually held at the Hays County Veterans Memorial, is going virtual this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The city announced Tuesday that local stakeholders made the move to commemorate Memorial Day with a short video ceremony, which will be shared with the public beginning on Monday. The video will also be shared to the city’s Community Services Facebook page and the City of San Marcos’ YouTube channel. The video will also be broadcast on Monday at 10 a.m. on Spectrum channel 10 and Grande channels 16 and 123-16.
“We hope the tremendous support from all of the participants for our veterans and survivor communities transcends the screen,” said Lisa Morris, Veteran Affairs Advisory Committee staff liaison, in a statement. “Next year we expect to return to our regular in-person traditions at the Hays County Veterans Memorial.”
