Ongoing Upgrade Activities At the Park

January 27, 2021 by Dan Shaw

Staples All Veterans Park board members have approved two major projects. We are working with our local partners to begin building a new POW/MIA memorial along the North side of the park and we will be pouring the foundation for the WWII memorial on the SouthWest end of the park. The WWII memorial wall has concrete poured and we will be setting up some temporary plywood displays for showing what images we would like on the granite that will ultimately be added with the names of all local WWII veterans. We will also be working on the POW/MIA memorial next. Funding for these activities is coming from grants from Sourcewell and individual donations. If you would like to donate money to help us complete these memorials please visit our donations tab shown at the top of this page. All donations are tax deductible. And please click on the “photo gallery” tab to see the construction activities. The board wishes to thank Paul Drake tree service for moving the trees, Phil Bjerga construction and Ben Busker construction for the digging work and concrete footings for the WWII memorial.
