Return to March of Remembrance Homepage
This is a list of the nearly 40 Locations in the United States that participated in the 2011 march.
We hope these locations will make a showing again and their numbers will increase.
We will begin updating this page after the first of January 2012.
This list is based on the Facebook Group Page. If you are a Facebook user, please consider going to this page and:
- Register your attendance at the March you will attend.
- Join the conversation and plan your participation.
- Share the marches with your friends and encourage them to register and attend!
This is NOT a complete list... If your event is not listed, PLEASE contact us with the time/place it will start so we can post it here.
We suggest that every observance end with the lighting of 6 candles and every person in attendance reading a list of at least 100 names at the same time in order to speak thousands of names in a short time.

Time: Sunday, May 1 · 1:30pm - 4:30pm Location: Massapoag Lake Grandstand Sharon MA
More Info: You are cordially invited to join us for the 1st annual Yom Ha Shoa Memorial march. We gather together to say “Never Again” must be more than just a cliché.
Our assembly point will be the Gazebo on the beachfront of lake Massapoag in Sharon, MA. This is on Beach St. right off of Pond St.. Pond St. comes right out of the center of town. We will park at the lot in front of the bandstand. If we run out of spaces we will have additional parking at a lot in front of the High School. This is also on Pond St.. You will have passed it on your way to the beachfront. It is a very short walk from there to the beach.
Once there, we will march to the center of town and back to the gazebo on the lake. We will have a time of special speakers, music and Memorials to the Holocaust victims.
Joining us that day will be Holocaust survivor and the founder of the Holocaust Memorial in Nashua, NH, Fred Teeboom. He will be speaking and bringing a display dedicated to the victims of the holocaust. At the rally we will receive an offering for the Holocaust Memorial. All money will go directly to the Memorial in Nashua, NH.
During the rally at the Gazebo there will be a time of prayer and dedication to the victims of the Holocaust. I will ask 100 people to recite the names of 100 victims of the Holocaust. We do this so that we will never forget that these were real people, not just names from a historic event that happened in the distant past.
If you absolutely know you are coming, please email me back and let me know so that I can have an approximate head count. This will affect how many Porta Potties we rent and other factors as well. This information will also be posted on our web site and on face book, http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=134348516636367. If there are updates or changes those will be posted as well.
