Fundraising for the memorial has involved reaching out to local businesses, community groups and individuals like yourself. Our goal has been to reach $225,000 - $250,000 to cover the cost of construction and future maintenance. To date, community groups such as the Perry Hall Improvement Association, Perry Hall / White Marsh Business Association, and the White Marsh Recreation Council have provided significant contributions.
Amercian Legion Post 130, and VFW Post 10067 have provided generous promotion and support for the project. These veterans organizations are located within the area, and have proven to be an invaluable resource.
We are close to reaching the goal to start construction. Please spread the word that additional donations are needed in order to bring this beautiful memorial to fruition.
The Honeygo Regional Veterans Memorial will provide a place for reflection, celebration and remembrance for the all of our men and women veterans who have served in the armed services of the United States. Recognition of all of our armed conflicts, WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Desert Storm, Persian Gulf and Afghanistan. The Community Advisory Group looked at over 14 possible locations, and with the help of Baltimore County selected Gough Park at the southeast corner of Joppa Road and Honeygo Blvd.
The park will also include a walking history of the Honeygo Area beginning with indigenous residents to current residents.
The Plan
The design of the Perry Hall Veterans Memorial meets two major design criteria: high visibility to the public and privacy for contemplation and remembrance. While the location of the memorial near the monumental Gough Park sign at the busy intersection of Joppa Road and Honeygo Boulevard makes the memorial visible to many area residents on a daily basis, the design layout provides a terminal focal point with only one means of access so the heart of the memorial becomes a destination and culmination of intent for visitors.
The memorial’s linear design derives from spatial availability in this corner of Gough Park. Nestled between the existing gazebo, a handful of existing trees, and the property line, the broad promenade is based on the concept of a military procession. The brick and concrete construction honors the strong tradition of brick in the architectural history of the Baltimore region.

Our Partners
Starting with the realization that Veterans Memorials throughout our communities were scattered, and were to commemorate veterans from individual conflicts, the idea was "hatched" to create a space that would recognize and remember the thousands of Service Members from all conflicts since World War I. After many months of searching for an appropriate location, and negotiating with several developers who needed to accommodate "open space requirements, the dedicated committee formed by your local associations, councils, political representatives, caring developers & architects,
the plan came together and was approved
by Baltimore County.
