Local leaders in the Town of Brookhaven honored three eighth-grade students from Center Moriches, Kristin Luna, Adrianna Loesch and Addison Raupp, who were instrumental in implementing the Hometown Heroes Banner Program.

“Their efforts to honor the memory of those who served our nation show their reverence and respect for those who bravely serve our nation in the armed forces. Ee honored their efforts and patriotism before the Town Board meeting,” said Town of Brookhaven Supervisor Dan Panico.

The three students raised over $4,000 for the Hometown Hero banners, which feature photos of the veterans and a description of their service.
