About

The Holdrege Veterans Memorial honors all veterans that have served honorably in one or more divisions of the United States Armed Forces: Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force, Coast Guard and National Guard.

The Holdrege Veterans Memorial is a collaborative effort involving multiple community-based organizations including Holdrege DAV, the City of Holdrege, Phelps County Community Foundation, Phelps County Development Corporation, Palmer Brothers Granite Co., and Holdrege Area Chamber of Commerce.

A committee comprised of representatives from these organizations led the planning and design of the memorial. The City of Holdrege has provided property for the site and other services for its ongoing maintenance.
