A committee has been appointed to develop the Veteran’s Memorial at Fenton Freedom Park. The park, located within the triangle of West Shiawassee Avenue, West Elizabeth Street and Park Street is a City of Fenton Historic Site - 1837 Public Square, which was originally used for town meetings and Civil War troops mustered here before heading off to battle. The park has long been a place of remembrance to honor those who have served from our local community.

The new Veteran’s Memorial will consist of a Veteran’s pathway, filled with memorial bricks, a sponsor area, a statue and a commemorative wall honoring the United States military. A dedication ceremony will be held on Memorial Day 2024. More information will be released as the date approaches.
