Lower Gwynedd Township is pleased to announce that it will honor America’s veterans with its 14th annual ceremony, on Saturday, November 7, 2026, from 10:30 a.m. to noon. This year’s ceremony will again be held at Lower Gwynedd’s Veterans Memorial Park, at the intersection of N. Bethlehem Pike and Penllyn Pike, in Spring House.

The ceremony will take place rain or shine. In the event of rain or inclement weather, the ceremony will instead be held at the Lower Gwynedd Township Building, 1130 N. Bethlehem Pike, Spring House. Check the Township’s website, linked below, on November 7th for information on possible ceremony relocation.

The ceremony will include remarks by veterans of the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force and/or Coast Guard. Patriotic musical numbers will, again, be performed by the Wissahickon Middle School Wind Ensemble and the Bethlehem Baptist Church Men’s Choir, and Ambler Boy Scout Troop 3. Also participating will be veterans from Ambler’s Daniel W. Dowling American Legion Post 769. Immediately following the ceremony, several local restaurants, including Arpeggio BYOB, Penna’s Italian Market, Spring House Tavern, Fireside Bar and Grille, Il Giardino and Wawa, will provide complimentary “Taste of Lower Gwynedd” refreshment, at the nearby seven-foot-high metal “Wreath of Honor” sculpture, dedicated in 2006.
