This Memorial Day, the ILVY Dolphins Swim Team proudly honors the heroes who gave their lives in service to our country. 🇺🇸

Their sacrifice allows us the freedom to do what we love each day — including gathering as a team, competing, and building lifelong friendships.

We remember and thank those who gave everything for our freedom.

I spy a swimmer doing awesome things in the community! Thank you Fiona and Troop 123 for helping beautify Peru!

Let’s give a shout out (thank you)to these young future leaders of our community. Boy Scouts 123 will be spending their Sunday morning, picking up trash around the city of Peru starting on 7th Street going over to Pike Street and then Putnam Street.  It’s projects like this and leaders like this that make the city of Peru so great. 💙💙💙
