This Year's Project: Korean War Memorial
About Our Organization
Siouxland Freedom Park is a 100% volunteer, non-profit organization. The park is located at 1801 Veterans Drive in South Sioux City, NE and is home to a half-scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall in Washington, D.C. The 250-foot granite wall is engraved with the names of more than 58,000 fallen service members from the Vietnam War. Park officials are currently working on exhibits inside the Interpretive Center. Plans are in the works for a Korean War Memorial.
Our debt to veterans can never truly be repaid to veterans, but on these hallowed grounds, we will strive to honor their memory, extend our hearts to aid their healing and educate young and old on the historic significance of their service.
Current Project: Korean War Memorial
"Our nation honors her sons and daughters who answered the call to defend a country they never knew and a people they never met."
A Korean War Memorial is in the plans at Siouxland Freedom Park. Right now, Port Neal Welding is working towards constructing nineteen 2-D statues, made of stainless steel, which will represent the Korean War Memorial in Washington, D.C. Plans for the memorial have installation behind the wall of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial, also at Siouxland Freedom Park. Each statue is being sold for $10,000. If $10,000 is raised through the 5th Annual Siouxland Big Give, one of the soldiers will be named after Siouxland Big Give in recognition of their community efforts for all non-profits. Siouxland Freedom Park officials hope to have this project in the construction phase in 2023.
