This was a project that had been on the minds of many, but no one had taken the plunge until Marilyn Schofield, looking for a good Community Service project for her Little Beavers 4-H club, decided it was time to stop putting it off. Marilyn then presented the idea of the 4-H club taking on the endeavor before the 2007 Town Meeting. With the approval of the town, it was time to go to work. The Knox Historical Society, having also mulled over the idea, got on board to help out with raising funds and working.
The 4-H club has had an amazing amount of support throughout this project, and it has been a great deal of fun and work.
As we continue to obtain veterans’ names, we will update both our “wall of names” and the listing in the town office entry.
For all individuals who are interested in the paver stones, you will be able to purchase one at any time. It will then be added to the memorial as it is purchased and printed.
