LaVernia Peters, postmaster at Formeso, is r6ady to cancel a'letter using
the special cancellation designed to celebrate the completion of the new fire
hall•
Formoso office gets
special cancellation
Friday the Formoso Post Office was
stamping a special pictorial cancella-
tion in honor of the new Formoso Fire
Hall recently completed. A cancella-
tion motif showing a fire truck design
was used Friday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
This cancellation was the idea of
the postmaster LaVernia Peters, who
has served the Formoso post office as
postmaster since 1993. The local fire
department chose the design used for
the cancellation.
Peters said she was busy all day as
letters came in to receive the cancella-
tion.
This is the second special pictorial
cancellation for Formoso. One was
issued Aug. 15, 2000, when the city
water project was completed.
The new fire hall was built in part
with funds from the Kan-Step program
and now serves the community as a fire
station and community center. An
open house will be held next month at
the fire hall.
