The Legion of Mars Parade
A Parade of, by, and for Patriots
The Legion of Mars Parade was created in 2013 by a few proud patriots to honor Veterans and Active Duty Military Servicemen and Women, and First Responders, including Police, Firemen, Paramedics. Our parade gives these special people a unique opportunity to enjoy the Freedoms they have dedicated their lives to protecting.
Riding with Pride
Led by the United States Marine Corps Band, the Best High School Marching Bands and ROTC Units in the region, WWII relic vehicles, and numerous celebrity special guests, PLUS floats honoring each branch of the Armed Forces, our local Hero First Responders, and our special Purple Heart Vet Float…
MARS RIDES! Saturday, February 3rd at NOON on the Uptown Saint Charles Avenue Parade Route!
Honoring Service and Sacrifice
Each year, by way of donations to the Mars Hero Fund by our generous members and outside sponsors, the Legion of Mars hosts dozens of Veteran Military and First Responders' rides in our parade. One such extraordinary float hosts distinguished Purple Heart Medal Recipients, whose sacrifice we honor in this most unique and special way.
Your donations help fund these Heroes' Rides!
