President Reagan will place a wreath Monday at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in Arlington National Cemetery before flying to Florida for Memorial Day appearances at Disney World’s Epcot Center and in Miami, the White House announced Wednesday.

Reagan and his wife, Nancy, will attend a Disney-sponsored event called “The President’s Inaugural Bands Parade” in Orlando.

The inaugural parade was canceled last Jan. 21 because of extreme cold. Twenty bands that were to have taken part have accepted Disney’s invitation to perform for the President.

From Orlando, the Reagans will travel to Miami, where the President will speak at a fund-raising reception for Republican Sen. Paula Hawkins, who is up for reelection next year. The Reagans will return to Washington later that day.
