New Glarus Veterans Park Update

The New Glarus Veterans Park would like to thank all donors to the Park over the last 10 years. It seems like yesterday that we were before the New Glarus Village Board to get approval of the Veterans Park site and then started our fundraising. We had many very generous donors. The New Glarus Community Foundation has been very generous to the New Glarus Veterans Park over all these years as well. We could not have completed the Park without all of you. Currently, we have no plans to add more memorials or benches.
