7/22/11 – Plans are in the works to build a Veterans Memorial in Mayville. Organizer Maureen Schuelke says the memorial would be located in Fireman’s Park near the pavilion. The granite walls would have more than enough room to contain the names of Mayville’s veterans past, present and future. There would be no charge to get a Mayville veterans name on the wall. Money for the project would come from “pavers,” bricks that can be inscribed with names and sayings that will be laid in front of the walls to form a walkway. The Memorial is anticipated to cost $100,000 and organizers hope to have it in place by Veterans Day. Those interested in purchasing a “paver” are asked to get a hold of Maureen Schuelke at 405 Furnace Street, Mayville 53050.
