lk of Honor, a path around the memorial honoring veterans

The impetus and vision for this project came from a group of veterans from northern Minnesota. Driven by a deep desire to honor their brothers and sisters who have served the nation, these veterans formed a volunteer committee that coordinated planning, construction, fundraising, and public awareness for the memorial. Today, the committee continues to update and maintain the city-owned memorial at no taxpayer expense.
