MISSION:  Our mission is to erect a memorial in  Smithville to honor ALL VETERANS,
 including those in our Merchant Marines, who have faithfully served our nation whether during a war or during  peace-time.  See the picture below for our vision of the future memorial.

We are honoring ALL VETERANS,  whether or not they have a local connection.
 Five monuments,  each honoring a different branch of the U.S. Armed Forces, 
will  encircle our nation's flag.  On the base of the flag will be  inspirational patriotic quotes.  All monuments will be on a field of  engraved pavers purchased to honor individual  veterans.   
 

Site for the Veterans Memorial In Smithville is best accessed from the Park Entrance on Main Street.  It is between Mishler Mill  and the new soccer fields.  Flags are compliments of Wooster Rotary  Club on Memorial Day, Flag Day, Fourth of July, Patriots Day and  Veterans Day.
