A new statue is coming this summer to the Veterans Park military history trail.
The city of College Station awarded a $25,000 grant toward the installation of the War of 1812 memorial “Don’t Give Up the Ship!” on the Lynn Stuart Pathway.
The statue is the sixth of 25 memorials that will eventually be put on the pathway. It’s designer, J. Payne Lara of Navasota, has also created the previous five memorials already on the pathway.
Anne Boykin of the Veterans Memorial Board said this is the naval memorial to be put on the pathway.
