The John Paulding Days are fast approaching us, which means the annual John Paulding Day Parade, and that means choosing the Grand Marshall.<\/p>\n
In years past, this has always been a big secret with the big reveal being the day of the parade. This year, the Paulding Chamber of Commerce is taking a different route. They are wanting to honor our WWII Veterans this year and want them to lead the parade.<\/p>\n
The Chamber is searching for WWII veterans that would be able to be in the parade and needs everyones help. They would like to get as many as possible.<\/p>\n
If you are a WWII veteran or know of one who would be willing to be in the parade please contact the Paulding Chamber of Commerce Office: 419-399-5215.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
