The Ross Township Veterans Memorial will be dedicated during a ceremony at 2 p.m. Saturday at 2 p.m. and the community is invited.

“It will be a simple, nice event as the memorial is turned over to the township,” said Deb Brown, township secretary/treasurer, during Monday’s monthly supervisors meeting.

The memorial was maintained by a committee, which has now dissolved.

The Ross Township Historical Society Museum will be open Saturday and has special items on display for Veterans Day. Refreshments will be served at 2:30 p.m. inside the museum.

The memorial is next to the Ross Township municipal building and park, 250 Anchorage Road, Saylorsburg PA 18353.
