Honor Loved Ones with Lasting Memories
Celebrate the life of a cherished family member or friend with a lasting, living tribute. The Belvidere Park District’s Memorial Bench and Tree Program offers the opportunity to adopt or plant a memorial tree or place a commemorative bench in one of our beautiful public parks or along a scenic trail. This special tribute creates a peaceful space for reflection, remembrance, and connection for years to come.
Whether you choose a memorial tree or a memorial bench, your contribution enhances the natural beauty of our parks while honoring a loved one in a meaningful and lasting way. Each memorial tree is carefully selected and planted to thrive in its environment, offering a growing, living symbol of life and memory. Commemorative benches provide a serene place to pause, reflect, and enjoy the surrounding scenery.
The Memorial Bench and Tree Program is perfect for celebrating a special life milestone, remembering a loved one, or creating a peaceful retreat for personal reflection. Your memorial gift supports the Belvidere Park District and helps maintain and enhance our public spaces for generations to enjoy.
