Welcome to North Plains Veterans Park and a short multi.

Opened on November 11, 2020 but planned for years, the newest park in the North Plains park system celebrates our nation’s heroes, as well as offers a place to relax and reflect.

This 11,000 square foot park features a 100-foot flagpole with a 50x30 foot flag as the centerpiece, commemorative plaques honoring our Veterans and POWs for their service and sacrifice, benches, the town's first EV charging stations, an American Legion flag disposal box, bike rack and repair station, and more.

You will find the final at N 45° 35.ABC W 122° 59.DEF

A: There is a semi-circular arc of cement blocks with plaques honoring different US services. The one on the left end (eastern end) has a number. A = last digit

B: There is a memorial brick in the second row, left end, for Daniel J Vice. B = digit on the end of the middle line.

C: Look at the cement block with the memorial plaque on the right end (western end) of the arc.

  • If the plaque is for the US Coast Guard, C = 1
  • If the plaque is for the US Army, C = 5
  • If the plaque is to honor POW-MIA veterans, C = 8

DE: There is an glass-fronted information/bulletin board at the posted coordinates with information about the park. From start to finish, the construction of the park took only ___ days. DE = number of days plus 10.

F: On the front of the flag-decorated US Flag Drop Off box is the American Legion Post number. F = Post # __

The checksum (total) of the digits you got for A through F = 31.
