โค๏ธHonor a Veteran with a Paver at Veterans Field ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’™

Minnewaska Area District #2149 proudly named Veterans Field in honor of all who have served โ€” and especially those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. Now, you have the opportunity to help us build a lasting tribute.

We've dedicated a special plaza, located between the baseball and football fields, to honor the individuals who have served our country. You can purchase an engraved, personalized paver to be displayed in this plaza as a permanent mark of gratitude and remembrance.

๐Ÿงฑ Paver Size: 7 โ…œ" x 3 โ…œ"
๐Ÿ’ต Cost: $35 per paver

Please note: paver placement within the plaza is random, and installation may not happen right away.

๐Ÿ“ How to order:
Simply scan the QR code to fill out and submit the form directly! ๐Ÿ“ฑ

Or, visit our website and click the Community Education tab. Scroll to the bottom of the page to the blue "Resources" box and click "Veteran Paver Order Form."

Once completed, send your form to us in one of two ways:
๐Ÿ“ง Email: [email protected]
๐Ÿ“ฌ Mail: Send directly to the school

Whether you're honoring a family member, a friend, or a fellow service member, your paver will stand as a lasting tribute to their sacrifice and service. ๐Ÿ™

Let's come together as a community to honor those who have given so much for our freedom.
