memorial day

Americans across the country celebrate Memorial Day in honor of those who have died while in the military service. Though it's a day of remembrance, it also kicks off the most fun part of the year -- summer! For many, Memorial Day signals the beginning of beach season and barbecues. So let's celebrate America with these fun GIFs!

Oh, were you just planning on slicing your watermelon into wedges this Memorial Day weekend? We regret to inform you that plain old wedges are now kind of lame.

In honor of Memorial Day, we decided to talk pizza! who doesn't like pizza! Our troops in the field do!

Remember to toast the members of the United States Military this weekend, past and present  From Bunker Hill to Iraq, We are free because of their sacrifice. Freedom often is celebrated by drinking.

If you've been diligent about making smart choices in an effort to look good and slim down, don't throw it all away with the temptations at parties this summer. Cheating every now and then won't completely ruin your efforts. But the summer is laden with get-togethers that include anything from  a lean burger, to pasta salad...

After reading about the tangled and tattered flag on Fun107.com, Walmart in Fairhaven decided to donate a brand new flag for the PAACA community building in New Bedford.

We got some complaint calls this morning about the American flag that is being flown at PAACA's building at the corner of Coggeshall and Route 18 in New Bedford. With Memorial Day coming up this weekend, we decided to go down and check it out for ourselves...

If you are into history, you will love what the Fairhaven Village Militia and the Office of Tourism have planned for this weekend.

Many war films have been produced with the cooperation of a nation's military forces. The United States Navy has been very cooperative since World War II in providing ships and technical guidance, Top Gun being the most famous example.

It's the official, unofficial kick off to summer, Memorial Day Weekend.  We all get together and watch the parades to honor our troops, we pull out the grill and invite family and friends over for the first cookout of the season.
