The Mt. Carmel VFW Poppy Day is returning again this month. The city council has approved the VFW’s request to be on city intersections the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend which is May 28th. Poppy Day has been a long time holiday tradition throughout the country. Since the VFW is a nationally recognized organization, 9th & Cherry, 5th & Walnut, and 13th & College intersections will be manned with volunteers collecting money in exchange for a poppy.
