Veterans Plaza Project
The City of Fort Collins has donated land for the plaza, to be built using community donations, to be located at the Spring Canyon Community Park. This visionary plaza will incorporate sandstone paths, native rock, shade trees, and a natural stone stage for celebrating the liberties and freedoms that have been protected by our Military Service Members. You can learn more about this project HERE.
By providing proof of military service, new names may be listed at the Fort Collins Veterans Plaza at no cost to the individual/family. While the Veterans Plaza is located in Fort Collins, local residency is not a requirement for listing, but either the nominator or the service member must have a tie to Northern Colorado. Names currently engraved at the memorial in Edora Park will be listed at the new location. Veteran’s names may also include those currently serving. Nominations may be made by filling in the form HERE.
Semper Feet
Semper Feet is the brain child of Mrs. P from A Little Pink in a World of Camo. She has gotten lots of pairs of socks donated to send to the Marines and now is in need of postage for the shipping. Give a click on the Semper Feet logo to find out more!! Every little bit helps. You can donate thru Soldiers’ Angels via paypal, just be sure to note that it is for Semper Feet, so it goes into the postage fund for this. Thanks in advance!!!
