CORRESPONDENCE: A letter was received from The American Legion to request approval for our project Hometown Hero’s banner project. This is a community project with members from 4 different organizations from the Mt Top Historical Society, Rotary Club, Adopt Vets, and the American Legion. It is not a fund raiser, and it will not cost the Township anything. Our plan is to hang banners of our Mountaintop Veterans for 2 years in Dorrance Twp. on PP&L poles. After the 2 years have expired banners will be returned to t he sponsor and another

group of veterans will be mounted. All costs will be paid for by the family sponsoring the veteran.

We are asking for township support and assistance to acquire PP&L poles in Dorrance Twp. Please email me at martine.columbo@aol.com or call me at 570-328-5466 if you have any questions.

Thank you, Martine Columbo, CDR, Mountain Post #781, 1550 Henry Dr, Mt Top, PA 18707.
