Sunday, April 13, 2008 - The American Legion Post 372 located on Marlboro Avenue near Cherry Hill West HS received our assistance Sunday while placing United States flags along Chapel Avenue. Rehab 1385 provided hot and cold beverages to the vounteer members for this task as it was a brisk windy day. Due to the large turnout the job was completed in record time.
The post also was kind enough to purchase and donate 16 new cherry trees for the Chapel Avenue route. These were planted on Saturday with assistance from the Cherry Hill Fire Department - Engines 1322, 1352, and Battalion Chief Mike Iannetta, and Chief Robert Giorgio.
