The Town Center

branch of Heritage Bank was recognized for its display and care of the

American flag by the Marquis de Lafayette Chapter, Sons of the American

Revolution.

The SAR is

an organization composed of male descendants of the Revolutionary War

patriots. Its purposes are patriotic, historical and educational. One

of the ways in which it promotes patriotism is through the honoring of

organizations, businesses or individuals that properly care for and display

the United States flag.

The SAR has

about 25,000 members nationwide. The Lafayette Chapter, located in Fayetteville,

is the newest chapter in Georgia and received its charter last August.

The local chapter

meets on the second Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m. at the Heritage Bank

Branch on North Jeff Davis Drive.
