Prineville residents, young and old, lined Northeast Fourth Street, waving flags and cheering as the Veterans Day Parade put on a patriotic show in honor of military veterans in Crook County and throughout the country. The parade featured numerous military-related groups, from the Crook County High School NJROTC to the American Legion and Band of Brothers. At the conclusion of the parade, Crook County Fire Chief Matt Smith gave a speech at Ochoco Creek Park, and residents were invited to a free spaghetti feed at the VFW and American Legion hall.
