Soldiers Field Veterans Memorial - Memorial park in Rochester - 300 7th St SW, USA

What an awesome experience today. The veterans who brought our students on the tour did a great job. I had yet to check this place out. It was very well done.

This is one of the most moving veterans' parks I have visited. The statue of the woman and child with the life changing telegram was very touching. A wonderful tribute to those who have served.

Very well maintained and beautiful space. Seems very popular on a Monday evening in August. Multiple play areas for youngsters, spaces for baseball and soccer. The tributes to veterans are numerous and attractive and contain historical references and lessons.

Memorial Park honoring the brave, the defenders of our freedom and those who gave the greatest sacrifice-their lives. Beautiful granite wall honoring the names of local men and women who served, flags of the different branches, statues depicting their service and actual military artillery. The surrounding park offers plenty of opening space, two play areas, plenty of picnic benches and park shelters, tennis courts, baseball field, dirt running track and public bathrooms. Adjacent pool/water park and golf course are also available. Park and surrounding grounds are clean, but clearly dated and showing need of repair and replacement. Plenty of parking and walking/biking trails.

The biggest veteran memorial I've seen! Lots of art lines the walls of the memorial, as well as a couple of statues. There's some old canons as well. Beyond that, mostly just fields. They are pretty well-kept though.

We were there for Rochesterfeat. A decent crowd but not much for food lines. There might be a couple more food booths this year.

Really nice park with plenty of parking. The park also abuts the trail system that runs along the river. The veteran exhibit is quite something. Follow the signs carefully to arrive here.

Very nice tribute to America's veterans. There is a sculpture in the middle of the memorial of a mother and child. The woman is holding a telegram informing her that her husband was killed in action, as she looks skyward and her child is clutching her side. Timeless and incredibly sorrowful, as is the the medic/corpsman sculpture directly behind the wall. A very nice memorial.
