We honored all the veterans on Saturday October 3rd, 2020 with a flagpole ceremony at the Carlton R. Rouh Veterans Center at 777 Blackwood Clementon Road in Lindenwold. Jeff Lingo, CEO of the Acme Lingo Flag Company, donated the 25ft. flagpole and John Chesebro, a key member of our veteran advisory team, donated the flag. Also, ‘Signs by Dan’ donated the front entrance sign which is being integrated with the flagpole.
