Upon visiting the monument today, I was very, idk…upset? to see these ugly tire marks all over this wonderfully laid concrete. I’m not making any assumptions as to who, what or why, but I informed some of the other committee members. It just doesn’t look good and you’d think that people would know not to drive onto a monument and its adjacent hardscapes, or even using the base of the monument as a turn around point. Maybe I’m being too sensitive. But this took a lot of work and time just for it to end up looking like this just barely a month after it was dedicated. Unsure of when it happened but there are no tire depressions in the grass connecting the marks.

Fall is upon us.

Today is the day! 11am at Capron park for the official dedication of the Global War on Terrorism Monument to the city of Attleboro. 3+ years in the making.

08/26/2026

Shortly after taking office in March 2023, I spoke to Veterans Agent Ben Quelle about Attleboro needing a monument for our veterans and military members who served in the Global War on Terror. The city has a long history of honoring veterans and military members and the time had come to recognize those who served in this effort.

We then created an ad hoc committee consisting of Attleboro veterans and non-veteran residents to fundraise and plan for the monument. After 2+ years of hard work designing the monument, planning for its location and installation, and raising over $100K in funds, Attleboro’s Global War on Terror Monument will be officially dedicated on Friday, September 11 @ 11am in beautiful Capron Park.

Please join us in honoring our military members and veterans who served. All are welcome!!
