Photos of 'Haddonfield Project Poppy'
3,837 red poppies form the public art installation "Haddonfield Project Poppy, Lest we Forget 1917-1919," outside Haddonfield Memorial High School. Each flower symbolizes a fallen soldier from New Jersey who served in World War I.

American Legion officer Joe McElroy and USO volunteer Lisa Quanci organized the project - delayed by the pandemic - to highlight the “memorial” aspect of the school's name. Quanci hopes people will "stop and think" about what the word memorial means as we enter the holiday weekend. "A lot of people put their lives on the line and fought and died for something and should be remembered," she says.
