Curb Numbering Project 2023

Dear Merrick Residents,

The Merrick American Legion Post No. 1282 is sponsoring the curb numbering project. This project benefits the homeowners through more accurate fire and police service, as well as postal and other deliveries to your home.

This project provides young men and women with employment and supports the American Legion welfare programs, such as hospitalized veterans, both male and female who have heroically served our country.

This project also supports the maintenance of local veteran’s memorial monuments and park, as well as local community services.

All contributions are tax deductible. We encourage you to make your contribution by check, payable to the Merrick Post No. 1282, American Legion. Receipts will be furnished for cash contributions.

We wish to thank the residents of the Merricks in helping this endeavor to be a success. This project will begin shortly.
