“Summit County park located in the Village of Clinton, built by generous donations, maintained by volunteers ”
VILLAGE OF CLINTON, Ohio — A candlelight tribute was held for Ohio soldiers who gave their lives in service to our country at Ohio Veterans Memorial Park in the Village of Clinton, 10 miles southwest of Akron.
“This is kind of one of the unknown places in Ohio, and when people come here from a distance, they’re blown away, they can't believe what's back here," Kindig said. “This place is just so special to so many. It's about paying tribute to veterans, and also the the families, you know the families, the ones that especially have lost their veteran.”
The park also includes a Purple Heart memorial, and Medal of Honor memorial and a reflecting pond and eternal flame in tribute to prisoners of war and those missing in action.
