The red poppy is a nationally recognized symbol of sacrifice worn by Americans since World War I to honor those who served and died for our country in all wars. It reminds Americans of the sacrifices made by our veterans while protecting our freedoms. Wear a poppy to honor those who have worn our nation’s uniform.
The Post 594 Auxiliary will be giving away Poppies at Sam’s Club in Eagan from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm. The location of Sam’s Club is 3035 Denmark Ave, Eagan, MN 55121.
