Today’s story is very fitting for the Fourth of July weekend to honor all of our veterans, and comes to us from Dick Gagliardi, president-director of the Veterans Memorial Park
A major rehabilitation project at the Seward House Museum in Auburn and an effort to revive the now-defunct Veterans Memorial Park in Aurelius are among the recipients of state grants
Dick Gagliardi has a plan to reinvigorate the dormant Veterans Memorial Park in Aurelius, the first part of which involves the erection of a monument that would be a replica of the U.S. Marine Corps War Memorial near Washington, D.C. Gagliardi and the Veterans Memorial Park Association broke ground on the memorial project last week. The monument will be positioned at the entrance to the park, which is located off Route 326 and was used to host Babe Ruth League games. The construction and installation of the memorial will cost at least $50,000. Gagliardi told The Citizen he has been accepting donations from businesses and groups in the community, along with some online donations. A GoFundMe campaign launched last fall to support the construction of the monument.Â
