CONWAY — There will be no Memorial Day parade in Conway Monday, due to pandemic concerns, but services are planned at local cemeteries to which the public is invited, according to American Legion Post 95 of North Conway Commander Jim LeFebvre and Post 46 Commander Phil Vasington of Conway.
A Memorial Day parade will be held in Fryeburg, Maine, however, according to Fryeburg/Lovell VFW Post 9783 Commander Dave Tenney of Lovell, Maine.
