Sen. Leach stands with two constituent veterans during his third annual veterans trip to Longwood Gardens and Brandywine Battlefield.
KING OF PRUSSIA, September 26, 2011 – State Sen. Daylin Leach (D-Delaware/ Montgomery) today thanked the veterans of the 17th Senatorial District and their families for attending his Veteran’s Trip on Friday, September 23, and event co-sponsor New Horizons Senior Center of Narberth.
“Though the weather was somewhat dreary, it didn’t dampen our spirits and we had a great day touring the battlefield and celebrating our nation’s military history,” Leach said. “I’d like to personally thank Longwood Gardens and Brandywine Battlefield for hosting us, as well as the veterans who joined us on the trip.”
The group of nearly 200 veterans toured Brandywine Battlefield and Longwood Gardens then attended a luncheon featuring a presentation by Sen. Leach. This is the third year Leach and his staff hosted the Veterans’ Trip, and said that they plan to continue to do so in the future.
“I always enjoy meeting my constituents and hearing their stories, and this trip was no exception. I encourage anyone who missed it to join us for future events, like our Senior Expo on November 4, or to just stop in our office any time to say hello,” he added.
Leach also noted that if any residents of the district have ideas for future trips and events, they should contact his King of Prussia office at 610-768-4200.
