World's Largest Crow Statue

I used this memorial to teach my son about Memorial Day and what it is. I’ve driven by it many times but never took the time to stop and check it out until now. For a small town memorial, this is quite impressive. It’s very large and is almost something you’d expect to see in a much bigger city, so it was pretty cool, and a great choice for giving my son a lesson. The walkway to the inside had a guest book which I thought was kinda neat also. Looked like a bunch of stuff was missing from cabinets that were empty, but maybe I just caught it in between seasonal decorations or something. The flags are quite spectacular, not something I ever noticed from the road driving by, only the big crow. Not really sure what the crow has to do with the memorial, but at least it makes it stand out and peaks your curiosity to look closer. Seems like the perfect kind of park where a splash pad and playground would go well with behind it or to the side of it. It’s got a nice big sidewalk walking path that I’m sure is intended for walkers to hey some exercise, just because of how large and long the path is. The town should be proud, it’s very well done and taken care of.
