The annual BFMS Memorial Day Remembrance is happening on Wednesday, May 20 this year, at 7 p.m. in the auditorium.
The public is invited to join the Benjamin Franklin Middle School community for a very solemn remembrance on the night of Wednesday, May 20 in the Ben Franklin auditorium at 7 p.m.
This event is a short presentation on the true meaning of Memorial Day, featuring honored guests from the community, as well as former and current military veterans. As in the past, there will be a luminary display outside of the school to honor those who have served and paid the ultimate sacrifice.
This year the school will be selling miniature flags before and during the event. All money raised will be donated to the Wounded Warriors Foundation, an organization which helps veterans wounded in past wars. It is our goal to continue to raise money for this worthy cause and even if you do not purchase a flag, any donation you can make is greatly appreciated. In the past two years over $4,000 has been raised.
Questions or donations may be directed to: John Fiocchi@ridgewood.k12.nj.us, Michael Mitchell@ridgewood.k12.nj.us. Jason Ordini@ridgewood.k12.nj.us or Mollie Van Horne@ridgewood.k12.nj.us.
