McEuen donor wall adds to K27 memorial

Blue, silver and gold star balloons flapped in the breeze above the granite plaques where names were freshly etched into the McEuen Park Donor Wall.

“We’re up to about 100 (names) right now, so we are thrilled that we have that many,” said Tinka Schaffer, who serves on the board of the Panhandle Parks Foundation. “We encourage folks to come and remember people.”

Schaffer and PPF executive director Tracy Meyers had an informational table Tuesday in McEuen Park as they invited the public to see the new donor engravings.
