  • 11/09/24 - Post 104 Participating in Veterans Day Parade at Muncy.
    I want to personally thank everyone who came out today and joined us in the parade! We had an amazing group of 23 participants, and it was truly special to see our retired Veterans connecting with the Keystone 4H kids. One of the highlights was watching our Montoursville 4H club members, portraying wounded soldiers, present “Thank You Veterans” challenge coins to get our Purple Heart recipient. It was a great day and a greater parade because of all those who participated in the unforgettable parade! Thank you all for making it so meaningful.
    With gratitude, 2nd Vice Commander Doug Rupert
