Polaroid snapshot of the back of a 1955 Chevrolet adorned with American flags for the 2022 Waynedale Memorial Day Parade. Waynedale residents who own classic cars are invited to participate in the parade. This car was sitting on Old Trail Road waiting for the parade to begin.

Waynedale used to be a small town in rural Allen County, Indiana. Although it was annexed by the city of Fort Wayne in 1957, Waynedale still looks like a small town. Fort Wayne has an annual Memorial Day parade, but Waynedale has always had its own parade, too. The Waynedale parade starts at Waynedale United Methodist Church and runs north on Old Trail Road to the Prairie Grove Cemetery.
