We will also have a veterans tribute at our Veterans Memorial Garden Sunday and a full day of events on Monday," General Manager of Whitemarsh Memorial Park Lauren Scudieri said.Leo Varanowski and Apollo Marks are just two of the Boy Scouts volunteering to place flags.

The highest, most extreme level that you can dedicate yourself to a community," Apollo Marks, Eagle Scout Senior Patrol Leader Troop 3 said.Sindhura brought her children to teach them what true sacrifice looks like."They know how hard the veterans worked and give their respect for them, which they deserve," Sindhura commented.Enjoy the weekend safely and with joy, but anyone in the Ambler area, Scudieri says there is much to do Monday.Advertisement"There is a meaning behind it and it is about paying tribute to those who served and honored our country.
