Under a sunny sky and a warm temperature, hundreds of people lined Main Street this morning to watch the annual Veterans Day Parade.

The parade lasted an hour and included high school bands, vehicles, marching units, motorcycles, officials and military groups.

It lead off at 10:40 a.m. with police units followed by the parade grand marshal who is the Veterans of the Year John Moore, a Marine Corps veteran.

Units of various military personnel and veterans rolled down Main Street. Young beauty contestant winners tossed candy out of cars to parade watchers along the sidewalk.

Several youth military groups marched in step, and a horse-drawn wagon decorated with flags even participated.

Butler, Knoch, Moniteau, Slipper Rock, and Karns City high school bands all performed along the parade route.

Main Street, which was closed before the parade, reopened after the event ended.
