Welcome to the Orchard Park Veterans Memorial Park
The Orchard Park Veterans Memorial Park is dedicated to the men and women of Orchard Park that have selflessly served their country in the name of freedom. The park is a small token of our gratitude to all who have served in the United States Armed Forces.
In 2015, we began a complete renovation of the park. Thanks to the generosity of individuals, organizations, and local companies, our park has been completely transformed into a beautiful, modern memorial to those who served so selflessly.
The park is still a work in progress. Your continued generosity will allow us to make more improvements, including landscaping, signs, and statues dedicated to the wars in which our Orchard park residents have served.
