Additionally, the Veterans Liaison office wants to establish a volunteer program made up of members of the community who are willing to help veterans in need with certain tasks they may not be able to do themselves. Yard work, snow removal, grocery shopping etc. If you are willing to volunteer your time and service, please reach out to clerk@waterfordtwp.org so we can create bank of volunteers.
The Township would also like to remind our veterans that the County has approved a combat wounded parking sign on Atco Avenue in front of the American Legion.
To all our Veterans, we extend a heartfelt thank you for your sacrifice and service.
