On Friday, May 23rd, Legionnaires and Auxiliary Members, distributed Poppies for National Poppy Day. 

The red poppy is a symbol of sacrifice and is worn to remember those who have served and died for our country. Monies collected on this day of rememberance, directly support Veterans and families of Veterans who are in need.

Thank you to all of the community members who offered support for Veterans on Poppy Day!
