About the Clatskanie Veterans Memorial Committee:

   The charge of this committee is to construct a memorial wall for the
deceased veterans in the Clatskanie area, purchase granite for this wall,
and have the names of deceased veterans engraved in the granite.

   This committee is a joint effort of the Clatskanie VFW Post 2994 and the
Clatskanie American Legion Post 68. Together we have been able to raise
enough money through fund raisers and donations to construct our wall,
purchase the granite for the upper part of our wall, and have the names of
twenty nine veterans who were killed or missing in action engraved in the
granite.  With the pending names to be engraved and purchasing granite,
we need an estimated $13,000 to finish.

   We veterans of Clatskanie American Legion and VFW are proud to offer our community a place to come to honor and pay respects to our deceased
veterans.  Thanks to Job Corps we have placed benches around our memorial, and have more benches for the other side of the wall on the way. The local Garden Club cares for the landscaping surrounding our wall.  The memorial wall is located in a park on Lillich St. across from the city library.

   We have come a long way with the support of our citizens; however we  have a long road ahead of us.  This is a long term project, and we need continued support.  We would ask for a contribution from you or your establishment to help honor our fallen veterans.  Your support will help us to purchase the granite needed and the engraving of the names of our comrades.

   Thank you for your donation and your support.
