On June 15, Suffern High School’s Military Appreciation Club hosted a walk at the Sloatsburg Community Fields which raised $750 for the Wounded Warrior Project and Sloatsburg American Legion Memorial Post 1643.

Club advisor and English teacher Greg Casarella expressed members’ deep appreciation to Ramapo Central students, staff and community members for their participation and support of the men and women who have served our nation.

Since its founding two years ago, the Military Appreciation Club has raised funds for Rockland County’s Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 333, sent care packages to troops overseas and placed display boxes containing flags flown on military installations in Iraq and Afghanistan outside the Suffern High School auditorium.
