The City of San Marcos is pivoting again to continue traditions and activities in a safe and COVID conscious way; in lieu of the Veterans Day Parade, they will be hosting a “Month of Service” to honor all who have served.
A month’s worth of service opportunities have been organized with the help of the Veterans Affairs Advisory Committee and local veterans’ organizations to replace the traditional Veterans Day Parade the city hosts each year.
Residents are encouraged to decorate their home, vehicle, bike or place of business with flags, bunting, yellow ribbons and other patriotic items for the month of November. The public is also encouraged to turn their porch light green for the month for the “Greenlight a Vet” initiative as a symbol of ongoing support.
