Commemorative Bench Program

Park Bench

The Commemorative  Bench Program allows the public to pay tribute to a loved one by donating and dedicating a park bench or tree on County property, including:

  • Parks
  • Open spaces
  • Port Dover Pier, along Harbour Street to Main Street
  • Trails
  • Cemeteries.

While paying tribute to individuals is important and may enhance one’s experience in a location, these areas are extremely important to all users.
