MONROE MEMORIAL PARK BRICK FUNDRAISER
Throughout the
history of this American nation, brave men and women have fought and died to
protect and foster the ideals, freedoms, and aspirations of our country. The
community of Monroe would like to honor all service men and women by creating a
lasting tribute that would be both visible and beautiful for all to see. This
effort, spearheaded by the Monroe Lion’s Club, will be in the form of a
Memorial Park in the center of town.
The Town has
donated 1.5 acres of land for that purpose. The Memorial Park is envisioned as
a place of solitude where a person can reflect and remember the members of our
armed services. The park will include plantings, benches, pathways, flags, and
monuments to acknowledge the veterans who have served in all conflicts as well
as in peace time.
Undoubtedly we all have a father, mother, brother, sister, other
family member, or friend who served their country to protect our liberty and
freedom. We may sadly remember some veteran who Lincoln once described as
giving “the last full measure of devotion.”
Please
join us and help support this effort by purchasing an engraved brick to honor a
loved one who served, and encompass the gratitude you wish to express. Bricks will be included in the Park’s
pathway.
Your
purchase of a brick for $60 will cover the cost of producing the brick, plus a
contribution toward construction of the Memorial Park. Your brick will include up to three lines of
text of your choice. In appreciation of
your support you will also receive a 4” x 4” replica tile that you can proudly
display in your home.
Thanks for your support.
If you need help or have questions regarding this fundraiser or the memorial please call Mike Moody (207-322-2269) or contact Mike Schaab at [email protected] or by phone (207-922-8812).
