2010 Veterans Day Parade in Reno

Reno's 2010 Veterans Day Parade is on Thursday, November 11. The parade route is along S. Virginia Street in downtown Reno, starting at Court Street at 11 a.m. and running north to 5th Street. The 2010 Parade Grand Marshall will be retired General Gordon Russell Sullivan, who served as the 32nd Chief of Staff of the U.S. Army and a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The parade will include veterans groups, high school marching bands, civic organizations, and patriotic citizens.

No Fees for Vets on Veterans Day - Veterans and active duty military personnel, along with their families, will pay no recreation-related fees when they visit federal recreation lands on Veterans Day. The fee waiver always applies on November 11, even if the official observance of the holiday is on a different day. This program started in 2006 and applies to lands administered by the Bureau of Land Management, National Park Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Reclamation, and the U.S. Forest Service.

In the Reno / Tahoe area, numerous public lands are available under the program. To learn more, visit the Nevada Bureau of Land Management, the Humboldt-Toiyabe National Forest, the Tahoe National Forest, and the Nevada Fish & Wildlife Office.
