Cherryville and the American Red Cross Honor Our Veterans

Veterans CeremonyOn April 23, 2010 the American Red Cross - Gaston County Chapter presented Peak Resources - Cherryville with a grant to help us honor our veterans.  The grant was used to purchase four remote-controlled helicopters and airplanes for our veterans to enjoy at the facility.  Peak Resources - Cherryville invited the Burns Senior High ROTC to Post the Colors and Ms. April Bryant, an employee at Peak Resources Cherryville, sung the National Anthem. The Mayor Pro Tem, Gert Fisher, gave a welcome and Rev. Leonard Bumgardner did the Invocation. 

Families and staff were invited to enjoy the festivities that honored Clyde Bramlett, Andrew Holt, Edward Popilock, Leonard Coggins, Albert McCarter, and Bob Raxter.  The American Legion Post 100 came by and folded an American flag which they presented to the facility and also played taps on the bugle.  It was truly an honor for us to have the opportunity to honor these fine gentlemen and their sacrifices for our country.
