March to the Sea

Every year the Tisbury School and the Edgartown School pay homage to Memorial Day with March to the Sea pilgrimages. Today, March 25, starting at 12:30 p.m. in Tisbury and 1 p.m. in Edgartown, students walk from their respective schools down to the water where they will throw flowers in the harbor to commemorate those who have given their lives for their country.

In Tisbury the march heads to Owen Park via Spring and Main streets. In Edgartown students finish at the Memorial Wharf.
