Community Veterans Memorial

Community Veterans Memorial is off I-80/94 exit Calumet Ave., then 2.4 mi. s. to 9710 Calumet Ave. The 6.5-acre park features life-size bronze statues and five memorial sites to the major wars of the 20th century with landscapes replicating the rough terrain of war-torn lands. Connecting the monuments are fact-filled pathways that serve as a historical timeline. Artifacts include a Huey helicopter, a replica of a P-51 Mustang fighter plane and personal items such as boots, guns and letters from the home front.

Each monument includes an audio recording about the conflicts represented.

Guided tours are available by reservation.
