MONUMENT project
It's simply amazing what the work crew has accomplished since the start of this project in 2018. Beautiful doesn't even begin to describe the awe you feel when walking down the walkway and seeing the first set of engraved bricks laid down, then reading the etched stone, but of course that is just my opinion, you will have to come down and see it for yourself.
If you would like to order a brick you can pick up a order form at our legion or order one on the hero's walkway section on this page.
