Bras On The Bluff raffle

With a 100-percent chance of rain expected Saturday, the third-annual Bras on the Bluff event has been canceled.

“We’ll just make it bigger and better next year,” event organizer Meg Freeman said.

The Bras on the Bluff raffle will still happen at approximately 1:30 to 2 p.m. at The Camp restaurant Under-the Hill.

Raffle tickets can be purchased for $5 for a chance to win more than $6,000 in prizes.

A portion of proceeds will go toward two mammogram screenings and readings for Miss-Lou residents. The rest of the proceeds go to the American Cancer Society and helping cancer patients in the Miss-Lou.

Bras that were donated for this year will be used next year.

The Veterans Day parade is back in Natchez this year, stepping off at 2 p.m. Sunday on North Broadway Street.

“This year, we’re going to have multi-grand marshals – all of our World War II veterans,” parade organizer Marianne Violette said.

The parade will travel up Main Street to Union and then to Franklin Street. The parade will end on Canal Street where the Boy Scouts of Natchez will conduct a flag retirement ceremony at 3:30 p.m. next to the Natchez Convention Center.
