Inaugral Tribute To Veterans In Haddonfield Needs Help, Leader Says

HADDONFIELD, NJ — Help is needed now to make an inaugural tribute to veterans taking place this November a success, a borough commissioner said.

The tribute? Hang as many banners as possible with images of honorably-discharged veterans and active veterans from lampposts along Kings Highway in November, said Haddonfield Borough Commissioner Frank Troy.

"We are asking that the banners be ordered by Sept. 15, so they may be in place along Kings Highway during the month of November," he said in an interview.

Banners can be purchased by clicking this link, he said.

The idea for the tribute came from Haddonfield student Kelsie Meeker, who is working with the local American Legion and borough to help draw attention to the project, according to Troy.
