The Battle Ground City Council invites members of the community to join them as we remember and pay tribute to the 31 Battle Ground area men enshrined on walls of the memorial

A Memorial Day ceremony to honor the men and women of the U.S. Armed Forces who lost their lives in service to our nation will be held at 11 a.m., on Monday, May 26, 2025, at the Battle Ground Veterans Memorial located in Kiwanis Park at 422 SW 2nd Avenue in Battle Ground.

The Battle Ground City Council invites members of the community to join them as we remember and pay tribute to the 31 Battle Ground area men enshrined on walls of the memorial.  

“Each year, as we read the names of our local heroes aloud, we honor their courage, selflessness, and unwavering commitment to duty in defending our freedom,” shared Mayor Troy McCoy. “The Battle Ground Veterans Memorial stands as a lasting tribute to the service members from our community — and a powerful reminder of the deep gratitude we owe them for their sacrifice.”

The ceremony will include the presentation of the flags by cadets from the Battle Ground High School Air Force Junior ROTC program.  The ceremony will also feature performances by Battle Ground High School Band member Rubyee MacPherson (Trumpet) and local musician Logan Gillespie (Bagpipes).

We invite the community to join us in remembering and honoring these heroes, as well as all members of the U.S. Armed Forces who died in service.  Read about the Battle Ground Veterans Memorial, ​at www.cityofbg.org/veteransmemorial.
