Butler, MO – The Veteran’s Tribute Stone Monument will be set on the Butler Courthouse Lawn by the 1st week of June. This project began in August of 2013 and is now in its final stages with the unveiling and dedication scheduled for June 14th at 10 am.
The 4000 pound Veteran’s Tribute Stone Monument includes an engraved base, engraved bench and 2 tablets. Ryan Agnew, Elks member, designed the art work you will see on this magnificent monument. The complete project cost approximately $10,000.00. This beautiful stone monument was the spearhead of the Bates County Elks and will stand as a tribute to those that have and are serving our Country, from World War I to the present.
It took all of us as a community to make this happen. The Bates County Elks thank each and every one of you for your generous donations.
The monument will be installed in two parts prior to the dedication. The Bates County Elks invite you to attend the dedication, to be held at 10 am June 14th on the Bates County courthouse Lawn.
