Event Details

The Historical Society of Orange Park and the Town of Orange Park invite you to join us at Orange Park Veterans Memorial, which is located just inside the gates of the town’s historic Magnolia Cemetery, 1040 Kingsley Avenue.

We welcome all to be a part of this moving, patriotic ceremony that pays tribute to those who bravely served our country.

The program for this year’s recognition will include a presentation of the colors by the Orange Park High School NJROTC Color Guard, and musical performances by Kiley Taylor and the First Coast Highlanders. The program features inspiring words from Winette Sandlin, Vice Mayor of the Town of Orange Park, Judy Sweep with the Daughters of the American Revolution, and keynote speaker Kimberly Anding, USAF, Ret., Honor Flight Program Director.  Also featured will be local students who will present the winning essays in the 2024 Veterans Day Essay Contest, participation by the American Legion Post #250 Riders and a flyover by the Dreamland Squadron from Haller Airfield.

Seating is limited so attendees are encouraged to bring their own chairs. There will be NO parking in the cemetery. Parking is available in the First Baptist Church lot one block west of the cemetery at 1140 Kingsley Avenue. Refreshments will be provided following the ceremony.
