Summit Hill Lions Club is continuing its American flag program this week.

The program was resurrected earlier this year as a means of honoring and/or memorializing veterans from the community.For one-week periods, the club will fly the American flag at the Ludlow Park site to remember current and former town residents who gave service to our country.As the program continues this week, the flag will fly in memory of the late Peter DiMattia.He was an Army veteran of World War II, having attained the rank of corporal while serving with the 351st Army Air Force Base Unit from 1944-46. He was a member of AAF Air Crew @ Ft. George G. Meade, Md., and was a recipient of the Good Conduct Medal, the American Theater Ribbon and the World War II Victory Ribbon.Town residents are invited to contact Lions Club members to have a family member or friend scheduled to be honored or memorialized. Joseph O'Gurek Jr., (570) 645-5171, is in charge of the scheduling.Those making a request to have a veteran scheduled should provide that person's service record.The only stipulations are that the person being recognized is a current or former town resident and must have served in the Armed Services.
