The Veterans Memorial at
Moncus Park will be a lasting symbol of the courage, patriotism, sacrifice, and
honor of all who have served. This memorial space will feature a flag court,
flanked by large tablets that commemorate American military participation in key
conflicts throughout history. The Memorial also includes inscriptions in brick
pavers and seat walls that have been sponsored by local Veterans and their loved
ones in honor of their service.
The Veterans Memorial was
made possible by substantial contributions from The Stuller Family Foundation,
The Pinhook Foundation, Jim & Ginger Roy, the Renee & Herbie Schilling Fund,
Schilling Distributing Company, Casey Lowe, Bo & Jerry Ramsay, the Beaver Club
of Lafayette, Stanley & Susan Blackstone, and the On Call Band.
In addition to these
donations, the Veterans Memorial at Moncus Park Committee and Veterans Action
Coalition have actively raised funds and advocated on the Park’s behalf for the
creation and development of this space through the ongoing brick paver and seat
wall inscription campaigns.
Throughout the planning and
design process for the Park’s master plan, Veterans have been engaged on many
levels. Their participation ensured that this beautiful space will serve the
needs of many different types of military events including memorial ceremonies,
military weddings, holiday celebrations, and more.
Thank you for your support!
