As it has been for many years, Memorial Day 2023 was observed in the city of Oswego. A ceremony led by veterans’ brought civic leaders, city employees and members of the Oswego Elks #271 to the Veterans Memorial Park along the Oswego River. A warm, sunny day brought out a large crowd, who were there to pay tribute to all those who gave their lives in service to the country.
