Mellon Heritage Foundation to Formally Dedicate the Veterans Activity Center

by

The Mellon Heritage Foundation has announced they will “Present and Raise the Colors” formally dedicating the new North East Veterans Activity Center at 12:00PM, Saturday, February 17th at 16 West Division Street in North East, PA. All veterans are invited. There will be food, refreshment and music following the ceremony.

It hasn’t taken long for M. Richard Mellon to begin the process of transforming the former Mercyhurst campus into what is sure to become a new, excellent and hopefully permanent chapter for the property and for the entire North East community.

  1. Thanks for spreading the word to veterans! The Mellon’s new Veteran’s Activity Center is bound to become an important centerpiece for North East and the veterans it serves. I’m looking forward to visiting with fellow vets and helping to celebrate the dedication of this facility as we “Present and Raise the Colors”.

    • Yep, this veteran will be there, too.

      For the Veterans Center, the North East Community and all of our fellow vets, this is a huge win.

  2. I’m really excited about this development. I was very upset when the former owners forced us into a position that we had to leave that beautiful space after working so hard to make it a wedding & event venue. I’m glad it’s going to be used for a good purpose.

  3. We are looking forward to participating with the event.
