Please contact me as to the procedure for submitting pictures.  The pictures must be of 300 dpi in size either in JPG or TIF format.  Usually these will be to large to submit via email. Should you not wish to scan the pictures, you may make arrangements to drop them off and we will scan them here and then return them to you.

Any pictures taken at the time of the dedication of the park.
Any pictures taken at any of the Veterans Day Ceremonies noting the year of the pictures.
Any pictures of some of the uses of the park would be welcome.

The House of Flags is adjacent to this park and is the only site of it kind found in the USA. Once their web site is updated it will be linked from this web site.  In the meantime I will be using the old web address.

 People were then able to purchase a brick with the information about a Veteran to be placed in or around the memorial location.

Currently online at this time.
