Start brushing your teeth or your hair with your non-dominant hand. Walk sideways or wear only one shoe. Visit places you have never been and perform activities you have never done. Read a book upside down.

Hillsdale

THE SONSOF the American Legion Post 162 — Hillsdale, Woodcliff Lake, Old Tappan (SAL 162) — repainted the townʼs 98year old police booth, an iconic symbol of the community, on the 79th anniversary of D-Day, June 6. SAL 162 worked closely with the town administration and DPW in planning and site preparation for the work, which included minor facade repairs.

A team of about a dozen SAL members descended on the booth on an evening in which the sky was thick with smoke from the Canadian wildfires. That did not dampen the spirit of the volunteers and their many “moral supporters” who showed up to offer encouragement, appreciation, and painting tips — the latter not really necessary, as three members of the volunteer team are professional painters. All offerings were graciously accepted.

“Weʼre delighted to have been able to help plan and execute this work, especially considering the upcoming events commemorating the 125th anniversary of Hillsdale,” SAL162 commander John Hering told Pascack Press on June 8.

He said members thank Councilman Anthony DeRosa, also a SAL member, “for helping us coordinate this with the town and with the town administration and DPW for all their efforts in helping us bring this to fruition.”

He said, “Projects like this are the very foundation of what the Sons of the American Legion represents, as we honor the memory of our parents or other relatives who served in the military and help give back to the communities they protected and fought for.”

He added, “Weʼre always looking for a few good men to help us in this effort..” Visit americanlegionpost162.org
