The Central Point Parks and Recreation Department is proud to announce the My Veteran / My Hero Tribute Tree program. For a donation of $450, this program offers residents the opportunity to celebrate a veteran/hero in their life through the purchase and planting of a tree. Each tree donation will include a 3” by 3.5” metal plaque which will be attached to a post near the tree. The plaque will provide the name of the veteran and a QR code that will link to this webpage. Listed below are all veterans who have been honored with a tree tree donation.
