A Maplewood memory care community will host the “world’s shortest” parade Aug. 27.

Hosted by the Anthem Memory Care facility Elk Ridge at 6 p.m., the parade will span one block and take place at 1700 Beam Avenue in Maplewood.

The event — which is free — will include classic cars, an ice cream truck, a mini zoo with therapy horses, face painting and more.

“This will be an end of summer celebration for our community and a fun event for our residents and families,” said Elk Ridge life engagement director Laura Bidgood, in a statement. “We hope everyone can join us for this brief but vibrant showcase of community spirit, creativity and joy.”

Anthem Memory Care, based in West Linn, Ore., operates and develops memory care communities in nine states.
