Here, American Legion Post 82 members Dave Monroe and Gary McNeilly collect supplies for hurricane Florence victims. The Shelby American Legion Post 82 collected supplies for victims of Hurricane Florence recently. A tractor-trailer furnished by Turner Trucking in Boiling Springs, NC was parked at Wal-Mart in Shelby for two days to store the items. Post 82 delivered over fifteen pallets of food, water, cleaning supplies, pet food, and other items to Concord. Those supplies are on their way to a National Guard Armory in the Wilmington, NC area and will be distributed by the NC National Guard. The Legion Riders, a group of legion members who ride motorcycles, escorted the truck to Concord. Creative Big Print of Shelby made a banner for the trailer.
