| Summary | |||
| Local artists submitted designs for a Memorial based on our vision for the “Pathway of Honor” and three separate and unique designs were selected.
The entire project will honor the service of all veterans, both living and dead, whether they served in a war or not.
The pathway will be at Dorset Park and will lead from the Pavilion to the Bandshell, connected by a concrete meandering pathway which will be lit at night, with separate spotlights on the monuments, and landscaped with bushes, trees, and flowers. The intent is to not only create a place to honor our veterans, but also to provide an experience for those who come to pay tribute. |

| The Designs | |||
The first design is a larger than life stainless steel “Dog-Tag”. The inscription will read, “A Pathway of Honor” “for the Veterans of South Burlington”, and will include a large ball & chain connecting the two tags. |

||
| The second structure will be a 10 foot cylindrical steel structure with many of the different wars carved in large letters around the cylinder. As sunlight, or spotlight at night shines through the cylinder, the letters will appear on the stone surface surrounding the structure. |  |

The third structure will be a monument created by Stonecrafters in Essex. The granite structure will feature the American Eagle emblem, as well as brass emblems of all the branches of service. Wording will include:
