Support Active Duty Service Project‏

John and I are looking for all Active Duty Service Members in Lisbon and Lisbon Falls for a bulletin board in the Town Office. On the bulletin board, we are putting their picture, their connection to Lisbon (son, daughter, resident), branch of service, and military address Please contact us if you have any questions ...and/or information about your service member. John and Mary Wierzbicki, phone: 353-4005; email: jmbjw@roadrunner.com; or Facebook: john_mary97@yahoo.com If you have a chance, please stop by the Town Office and check out who is currently serving. The board is changing frequently as we receive more names/information.

"Supporting our Home Town Service Members"

Thank you,
John & Mary Wierzbicki

 

We want to share a community service project with the Town of Lisbon.  The Lisbon community has always had many of its citizens serving in the armed forces.  Today, as in the past, we feel it is important to have Lisbon’s service members recognized, even in a small way.  With that in mind, we asked Mr. Eldridge, Lisbon’s Town Manager, for permission to use a section of the bulletin board in the Town Office.


            Our vision for the bulletin board is to obtain the following for each currently serving service member:  4” x 6” photograph (we will take any size picture and scan to resize), current address, and connection to Lisbon, i.e., Resident, Son/Daughter of _______________.  In the center of the bulletin board will be a Blue Star Banner[1] with one blue star representing all of Lisbon’s currently serving heroes.

At this time, we are in the process of obtaining information on any active duty service member.  We would appreciate knowing the active duty member’s information or have that family contact us.  We certainly do not want to overlook anyone.  Our contact information is jmbjw@roadrunner.com or 353-4005. 

Our goal is to honor the currently serving member, and to make sure each one realizes that Lisbon has not forgotten them.  In the future, we may also ask that the American Legion, VFW, and Lisbon residents help with cards, letters, care packages, and addressing their needs.
