SUMMARY:Des Moines Memorial Drive Preservation Association's annual Memorial Day observance will be Monday\, May 26
DESCRIPTION:The Des Moines Memorial Drive Preservation Association will be holding its annual Memorial Day observance on Monday\, May 26\, 2025\, starting at 11 a.m.   \nThis free event will be held at the old Sunnydale Elementary School building located at the corner of South 156th Street and Des Moines Memorial Drive (DMMD; map below). There is parking on both sides of the school. \nThe American Legion will present the colors. Chris Plyman\, American Legion Historian\, will present a program on the history of Memorial Day. \nThis year Kate Bysheim\, former soprano soloist at Northwest Chorale\, Seattle Pro Musica and University Unitarian Church will perform the National Anthem. \nThe Burien American Legion Post 134 will form the Honor Guard. \n“We look forward to welcoming you and visiting with you at our on-site museum\,” organizers said. \nThe original DMMD was lined with elms to remember WWI fallen. Planted 100 years ago\, they have fallen to disease and urbanization. There is little room today for that elm tree-lined tribute. Subsequently\, organizers have turned to creating art projects to memorialize the fallen\, including: \n\nA few years ago\, a story board designed by Andrew Jenner\, an Eagle Scout\, was placed in Miller Creek Park near South 146the Street and DMMD.  It will be re-installed when the current construction is complete.\nDoughboy emblems\, designed by Conner Lundeen\, also an Eagle Scout\, were placed on either side of the granite memorial at Sunnydale School.\nSignal boxes at major intersections were covered with WWI poster art.\nOn Memorial Day the new DMMD story board will be included when the City of Des Moines holds a ribbon cutting for the new flag plaza near the north end of the city.\nOrganizers are also working on a historical timeline of the efforts to create a “ living road of remembrance” from the 1920s to today.\n\n\n\n\n“We love working on these projects. We invite you to come and join our observance. We would love to see you there.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearn more at: \n\n\n\nhttps://livingroadofremembrance.com\n\n\n\nSunnydale Elementary School is located at 15631 8th Ave South:
