Susquehanna Valley Conservatives looking for volunteers to walk in the 4th of July Veteran’s Parade

flag & fireworksThe Union County Veterans 4th of July Parade will be held in Lewisburg on Saturday, June 29 starting at 10:00AM. Susquehanna Valley Conservatives would like to participate in this outstanding annual event provided we can get enough of our members and their friends to commit to walking the 1.2 mile parade route. Bob Harder and Bob Lebda, SVC co-founders, will lead our group and proudly carry the red and white SVC banner. However, we need to have at least 25 adults, and as many children and grandchildren as possible, agree to walk behind the banner to make it a worthwhile venture. We are contemplating having hand outs of some kind that can be distributed to people along the parade route. This will be given further consideration if we meet the required number of at least 25 adult participants.

Please email Bob Harder at rharder@ptd,net if you want to walk with the SVC in the parade. Give him your name, email address and telephone number. Indicate how many adults (including yourself) would participate and how many youth/children will accompany you. Provide him with this information by no later than June 1. If you have questions email him at the aforementioned address.
