School District opens Memorial Plaza to public


The community is invited to visit Veterans Memorial Plaza at Anacortes High School Seahawk Stadium this Memorial Day to pay tribute to those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country. The plaza will be open to the public from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Monday, May 29. No events are planned. The plaza is comprised of a memorial designed by local architect Brooks Middleton, with input from the Veterans Memorial Committee, as well as a display honoring two Medal of Honor recipients with local connections. Restrooms will not be open during this time. Services will be held at Causland Park and local cemeteries. (Photo from 2017)

About Photographer Steve Berentson

A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
