To continue the renovation and beautification of our Veterans Hall and regain its former glory as a place to be proud of for all community members to enjoy.
To increase the monetary value of our scholarships to local High School Seniors who are planning to attend college or trade schools.
To continue our generous support of youth sports, and scouting, while promoting good citizenship.
