Dunellen traditionally has a Memorial Day parade sponsored by the American Legion and VFW. Veterans, the Dunellen High School band, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, Little League, the council, Dunellen Fire Department and Rescue Squad all make the way through downtown to a beautiful ceremony and laying of the wreaths in Washington Memorial Park.
