The City of Menifee invites the community to gather in reflection and gratitude at its annual Memorial Day Remembrance Ceremony on Monday, May 26, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at Hidden Hills Park, located at 31727 Eaton Ln.
This solemn observance will pay tribute to the men and women of the United States Armed Forces who gave their lives in service to the nation.
This ceremony will include special presentations, guest speakers, a remembrance message, wreath-laying, and a flyover (weather permitting). Attendees will be given flowers to place around the memorial wreath to honor their loved ones during the ceremony.
“Memorial Day is a time to reflect on the profound cost of our freedom,” Councilman Dean Deines said. “We invite all residents to join us in honoring the courage, dedication, and sacrifice of those who gave their lives in service to our country.”
Street parking is available for attendees, and limited ADA courtesy parking will be located in the Hidden Hills Park parking lot. Additional overflow parking will also be available in the Paloma Valley High School teacher parking lot on Craig Avenue, between Evans Road and Bradley Road.

Throughout the year, Menifee families may honor military veterans and active duty service members by purchasing a military banner through the city’s Banner Program. These Banners feature the supplied military portrait of the service member, along with their name and affiliation to the United States Armed Forces.
