Banners honor veterans

On Oct. 28, volunteers hung banners of local veterans on light poles in the City of Belleville. A crew of seven volunteers hung 62 banners in three hours time along Main, High, and South streets. The crew included project chairperson Councilwoman Kelly Bates, Councilman Ken Voigt, Robert Kenyon, Tony Attard, Jim Patton, Thomas Bates, and Chris Donley.
“I’m so happy to have our veterans proudly displayed through our downtown,” said Councilwoman Bates. They will be on display at least throughout November.
Earlier this summer the light poles held banners with pictures of members of the Belleville High School graduating class of 2020.
