The Lake in the Hills Rotary Club has committed $45,000 over three years to help with the construction of the Lake in the Hills Veterans Memorial project. The first installment of $15,000 was presented during this week’s Lake in the Hills Village Board meeting. 

Presently, the village has $61,000 collected toward the project, said Village Trustee Russ Ruzanski.  Trustee Ruzanski said the village is hoping to start work on the memorial at Village Hall between Labor Day and Veterans Day of this year. A formal groundbreaking ceremony is scheduled for Veterans' Day.

The memorial will include a brick walking path around the Village Hall and a curved wall, with five granite pieces representing different branches of military service.

It is through the success of the Club’s annual Rockin’ Rotary Ribfest that this contribution is possible.  The Ribfest is the club’s sole fundraiser in which proceeds go towards community and international effots.   To learn more about the Lake in the Hills Rotary Club, visit www.lithrotary.org
