It is also the 5th Anniversary of the Town\u2019s Memorial. In addition to the annual ceremony on Sept. 11, at 8:30 a.m. at Hickories Park, the town is holding a dinner to help fund the remaining debt on the Memorial.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The dinner will take place at Cornerstone in Apalachin on Sept. 10, with a cash bar cocktail hour from 6 to 7 p.m., followed by dinner and a short program.
