VETERAN BRICK SALES
The Caro Garden Club has offered engraved bricks honoring active duty and military veterans. The Plaza of Honor at the Botanical Garden has been completed and all bricks have been placed near our Blue Star Memorial and Vietnam Veterans Memorial. This project is complete. It will continue to be a place of contemplation and respect for many in our community.
