This is a happy group of men holding their “big” checks from the Carroll
EMC Foundation. On the left is Ronnie Pate with the check for the American
Legion Post 143; to his right is President of the Carroll County Veterans
Memorial Park, Don Levans with a check for the Park; Dr. Timothy Ayers and
Director Ethan Sailers from the Carrollton Evening Sertoma Club are holding
their grant check.
The CCVMP received $2,400 which is specifically
for construction of six new Walls of Honor which will be added to the Park
hopefully before the end of this year. $6,300
is needed for this project and this will definitely help! Other grants and donations are needed and
hopefully will be received by Veteran’s Day and Construction can begin immediately
following our Veteran’s Day service. The service this year will be at 10 A.M.
on November 8th at the Carroll County Veterans Memorial Park and it
will be especially honoring our WWII Veterans.
Everyone is invited to attend.
Don Levans said, “It is always a pleasure to meet at the EMC along with the
dozens of other Non-Profits for the honor of receiving this needed grant money
and getting to associate with the leaders of so many other groups. We always
learn something and come away with more "connections" with other organizations.”
