At 5 p.m., the Memorial Day parade will begin in front of the Odenton Volunteer Fire Company on Annapolis Road.

Monday is also the final day of the Odenton Volunteer Fire Company Carnival. Rides open at 4 p.m. You can get an all-you-can ride bracelet for $23.

Also be sure to take time Monday to read a new booklet featuring stories about fallen soldiers from Odenton.

The booklet, published by Keystone Research Solutions, includes information about all fallen service members from Odenton since World War I.
