On Monday, June 22, the Shoreline Veterans Association presented the City with a check for $37,000 to go towards the construction of the Veterans Recognition Plaza to be located at Shoreline City Hall. The money raised by the Veterans Association along with $20,000 contributed by King County will allow the City to begin construction of the plaza, move the flagpole, and install benches.

However, to complete the Veterans Recognition Plaza, the Veterans Association needs to raise approximately $25,000 more. If you would like to contribute you can purchase an engraved brick honoring a veteran or active duty service member, which will then be added to the plaza.

A brief groundbreaking ceremony will take place on Monday, July 20 at 6:45pm at City Hall.
