Honor a Veteran With an Engraved Brick at Pioneer Park

Thank a special veteran for their service and purchase an engraved brick to be displayed in the Veterans Memorial at Pioneer Park.

Puyallup residents are invited to honor veterans they love through a special memorial at Pioneer Park.

The City of Puyallup Veterans Memorial in Pioneer Park, dedicated in 2002, depicts a soldier bending down to help a comrade. The soldier's hand is reaching out, symbolizing the need to remember all of those who have fought for America's freedom. A bronze plaque located at the memorial lists the names of Puyallup residents who have lost their lives in war.

A small courtyard surrounding the statue is where engraved bricks with special messages to soldiers will be prominently displayed.
