Engraved Brick Donations
The SCRVG is raising money to help pay for the Veteran's Memorial Park in Rolla, Mo. by selling engraved bricks to go around monument and other places throughout the park. Currently we're placing bricks around the perimeter of the Pentagon Monument.
There are only 240 available spaces around the Monument. We only have about 70 bricks left. If you miss getting your brick around the Pentagon, there will be other areas throughout the Park that your brick will be placed.
If you would like to buy a brick, click HERE to download the order form. You can print it, fill it out and mail it back to us with your donation here:

Veterans Memorial Park
-
Veterans Memorial Park will serve as a venue for veterans funerals, first time enlistments, military and non-military weddings as well as military and civic holiday activities. -
This will not be a children's park with athletic fields, playground equipment, or sporting events.
-
Currently, all funding is donated. Estimated expenses for completion of the park total $1.5 million dollars. Funding will depend primarily on grants and donations (monetary, material, labor and time.)
-
Preliminary park design is completed and we are moving forward in building.
-
This will be a "green" park and the first of its kind for the community. The SCRVG want to teach by example by including in the park design innovative eco-friendly technologies such as rain gardens, native plantings and permeable pavement.
-
Veterans Memorial Park will include such features as an amphitheater with dais, a POW/MIA memorial gazebo, a water feature and an eight foot wide walking trail featuring plaques detailing the history of all major US military engagements.
-
The park will be fully handicap accessible and open to all.
-
This project will provide instant stimulus to the economy of the area through both the purchase of materials and employment of people in various fields of expertise.
