The City of District Heights will hold the Veterans Park Dedication on Monday, May 31. After many years of planning, design and construction, Veterans and community members have an area to reflect and find peace. The dedication culminates the efforts of retired Mayor Jack Sims; the late Ulysses Currie, former State Senator-District 25; Angela Angel, former Delegate-District 25; George W. Owings, III, Secretary, Maryland Department of Veterans Affairs; Commissioners Harryette Irving and Cynthia Miller, and the many hours of work and planning of the Veterans Park Committee and a host of others.
