Commemorating Memorial Day in Lucas County depends on the civic virtue of hundreds of volunteers in the 3rd week of May. Planning that week relies on a smaller and smaller pool of volunteers. Help reverse that trend by coming to the TLCMDA meeting on June 14th.

Did you see something in Lucas County this Memorial Day that could be better? Do you miss the City of Toledo Memorial Day Parade?

Come to our final meeting of this cycle on Sunday, June 7th, 2026 at the Conn-Weissenberger Legion Hall on Alexis Road at 2 pm. We will be holding our officer elections for 2027 and will not meet again until September. Our meetings normally occur on the 2nd Sunday of each month from Sep to Jun but June 7th will be an exception to that rule.

We use this June meeting to identify what went right and what went wrong this year. It is an essential step toward improving what we do. We hope you will join us.

All systems go for this morning 10:30 AM Memorial Day service for the city of Toledo in the Civic Center mall on Jackson Street 

The weather did not defeat the continental army at Valley Forge and the weather did not defeat the Allied invasion of Europe in June 1944. A little bit of rain and 57° will not defeat today’s memorial service at Toledo’s Civic Center mall starting at 10:30 AM.

We are a go!

We hope that all residents of Lucas County find a way to commemorate those who died while serving in the Armed Forces this memorial day weekend.
