The City of Carrollton will hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony on Saturday, December 7 at 1 p.m. for a new Veterans Memorial Plaza located just west of Josey Ranch Lake Library (1700 Keller Springs Road) and adjacent to Carrollton’s Green Trail. 

The memorial honors veterans across all branches of the military who have served around the world. The plaza features five illuminated panels showcasing each military branch. The memorial also includes a world map design with stars indicating where different conflicts took place and an American flag over Washington, D.C. Part of the plaza is raised, allowing visitors to view the world map design from an elevated surface. 

Following the Veterans Memorial Plaza ribbon-cutting ceremony, which is open to the public, light refreshments will be served in the Carrollton Senior Center.
