Memorial Day Parade

The LWVCC was represented in West Grove's Annual Memorial Day Parade
by members: Susan Fields, Edith Swoboda, Pat Horrocks and Debra
Gallek (not shown, guess why!). It was a good time, we were
honored to participate and appreciative of the cheers and waves from
those watching. The League also participated in the Kennett Square
Memorial Parade.
