Three Towns Unite to Honor Memorial Day
The race weekend schedule began Thursday evening with The Legal Runaround, a 5K walk-run event in downtown Somerville. Saturday was the Bound Brook Criterium, Sunday was the Raritan Criterium, and Monday was the Tour of Somerville. “This is a fantastic county wide celebration and these three neighboring communities have come together to honor Memorial Day with various events,” said Brian Gallagher, Mayor of Somerville.
Footage from the Raritan & Bound Brook races and various events, including the Somerville Memorial Day Parade, was also shown during the broadcast on Monday. The parade preceded the race Monday morning and ends at the historic “New Cemetery” which celebrated 150 years of compassionate service.
This event is free and made possible through the support of individuals and companies. Our sponsors were represented throughout the live stream, affording them and the towns greater exposure.
