Starting in the spring of 2022, a sub-committee of the Plan Commission took on the task of bringing a Veterans Memorial to Three Lakes in the grassy area between the Municipal Building and the Demmer Library.  The Veterans Memorial Committee is dedicated to provide a place of honor to pay tribute to all our Veterans, past, present, and future.  Veteran's names and branch of service will be etched in the panel wall.  The following criteria must be met to have a name etched on the wall - All U.S. Veterans who served before, during, or after their residence in the Township of Three Lakes and/or any living or deceased Veteran who has any affiliation or tie to the Township of Three Lakes and surrounding area who completed active military service with honorable discharge. More information can be found HERE.
