Swanton American Legion Murbach-Siefert Post #479 conducted the Memorial Day Tribute to all fallen service men and women who gave their lives in defense of the United States of America. The event began with a parade that started at the Church/Main Street intersection and proceeded down Main Street, turning into Memorial Park in front of the WWI Doughboy Statue. Legion commander Rick Maynhart gave the opening remarks and John Schmidt gave the opening and closing prayers. Air Force Master Sergeant Helen Wheeler was the keynote speaker. The Swanton High School Marching Bulldogs was on hand to play the National Anthem, the anthem for all branches of the military and concluded the ceremony by playing Taps.
