The Veterans' Memorial Park at Grant -Valkaria

The 4,900 square-foot Veterans' Memorial Park is currently under construction on the west side of Grant-Valkaria Town Hall, facing the front lake and fountain under a beautiful heritage oak tree. The majestic tree will provide shade and solace for family members and veterans as they remember their loved ones and honor the memory of their brothers and sisters-in-arms.  The Memorial is made possible by fundraising events, donations, and sponsorships from area businesses, Grant-Valkaria residents, and the surrounding communities, honoring the memory of their brothers and sisters-in-arms. 

The Memorial will be ADA-compliant and built in phases, pending sponsorships, donations, and commemorative brick sales.  It will consist of a life-sized bronze soldier statue, stacked stone monuments that will hold the 4"x 8" laser-engraved commemorative Veteran bricks,  placards to honor our Veterans, and Six Military branch emblems displayed on a 4-foot concrete block entrance wall.  Two flag poles will fly the USA flag and the POW/MIA flag.   Around the monuments will be concrete benches, a Battlefield Cross, a Bald Eagle Statue, and a K-9 Service Dog.   Educational markers will be placed within the ADA compliant educational area.
