During the month of May, the red crepe poppy will be available for distribution by the American Legion Auxiliary Unit #330 throughout the village of Spencerport. Canisters will be placed in various store locations, and auxiliary members will be in some stores within the village distributing poppies. Some high school students will also be walking the Spencerport parade route helping to distribute poppies on Memorial Day, May 27. Donations for these poppies will gladly be accepted.
The month of May is used to honor and remember those that have died during all wars with the symbol of the poppy. The monies collected are specifically used for veterans programs like the VOC, aiding veterans wherever needed, Eagle Star, and Honor Flight, just to mention a few.
