Veterans Memorial Park

Veterans Memorial Park, originally named Market Square Park, was renamed in 2001 to honor veterans, following a request from the American Legion Olson-Grinde Memorial Post 348. With the support of the Village of DeForest, the park has undergone several enhancements, including the installation of a memorial sign, flagpole, and dedicated flags, marking its commitment to honoring the sacrifices of American veterans.
In 2004, the DeForest Veterans Memorial Foundation Inc. was established as a non-profit organization to promote Americanism and ensure the proper recognition of veterans through memorials and community service. The Foundation, comprising dedicated citizens and veterans, aims to create a contemplative space that enriches the community, fostering education, reflection, and remembrance for current and future generations.
