I write to inform you that the installation date for our community’s Project Poppy is postponed until the Fall. There were many factors that led to this decision. One is the cancellation of the Memorial Day Parade. With the cancellation there was the potential that our expression of respect for the sacrifice of our forbearers would not get the exposure that it deserves especially considering the effort of its funders and builders. Opening ceremony October 10th at 10:00a.m.
(rain-date October 11th at 12 noon).
The installation will remain in place till Veterans Day Nov. 11th
Thank you,
Joe McElroy
