Tree Donations
Veteran's Memorial Park Tree Donation
Veteran’s Memorial Park went under major renovations in 2021 thanks to the generosity of Flannery Construction and Lake Metonga Association. In order to complete the full renovation many of the existing trees needed to be removed. Now that the work is complete, we would like to replant trees at the park and campground for campers and visitors to enjoy privacy and shade.
If you are interested in purchasing a tree “in memory of” someone special or as “donated by” your family or business please fill out the form below and return to Forest County Forestry and Recreation Department.
We will have a large plaque put up at the Caretakers Cabin and the names will be displayed on the plaque for all to see.
The donation cost is $200 per tree, this will cover the purchase and planting of each tree.
For more information please contact the Forestry and Recreation Department at 715-478-3475.
Thanks For Your Support!
