TOGETHER WE HONOR

With the generous support of many and after a two-and-a-half-year journey, we have built a memorial that honors all Veterans, those who served during times of peace and times of war, and those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

Our memorial recognizes all branches of the military and is:

• A place where we will be reminded that America is the land of the free because of the brave who serve and defend.

• A place where our youth will learn about military history and understand that ours is a great nation.

• A peaceful place of meditation and quiet reflection for veterans, their families, and our community.

• A place that our community will be proud of for many generations.

Together, we honor our veterans.

LOCATION:

The Newberry Veterans Memorial Park is located in the southwest corner of Lois Forte Park. We chose this location because there is water and sewer on site, it is accessible, and there is plenty of space for Veterans events. Additionally, the City will be reconstructing NW 260th Street (between Lois Forte Park & the City compound) and the parking & accessibility will be even better. Once the SR26 one-way pairs are constructed the park will be very visible from the west bound pairs (currently NW 1st Ave). By the way, the main part of the Park that you see in the rendering is approx. 50-54 ft in diameter and there is a smaller meditation area to the rear. 

THE NEWBERRY VETERANS MEMORIAL PARK HAS BEEN CONSTRUCTED! 

THE DEDICATION CEREMONY & RIBBON CUTTING WAS HELD ON MEMORIAL DAY, MAY 26th, 2025
