We encourage everyone to stop by Town Square Park and visit our Veterans Memorial that was dedicated this past Memorial
Day. You start with the 22-foot obelisk representing the five branches of the military with the American flag
draped over the top. Then you can hold your breath when looking at the pictures etched in the World War
II Memorial Wall. For more information on how to donate to the remaining six walls, please read below.
Remember to help us celebrate our military past and present at our 8th Annual Veteran’s Day Parade

Sincerely,
Debbie Tharp
Community Services Manager

The City of Murrieta’s Town Square Park (located behind the Police Station at 24701 Jefferson Avenue) is home
to a unique memorial. A tall, granite obelisk with an inlaid granite american flag set in a base honoring the five
levels of service (Army, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard, and Air Force) stands proudly above a series of walls depicting
dramatic and emotional imagery of our men and women who have served and sacrificed in our nation’s defense.
The memorial consists of seven granite monuments in a chronological timeline representing the various conflicts
involving the United States with artist renderings of those wars and conflicts. Phase 1, consisting of the obelisk
and the World War II Memorial Wall, is now complete.

The concept for this monument is predicated on the fact that

in each conflict, lives and countries were pulled into, abruptly
interrupted by, and intertwined with moments of intense
passion and conflict, commitment and escape, euphoria and desperation. A meandering decomposed
granite path is designed to be at the base of the memorial walls, winding through the existing “V”
pattern of the Town Square Park to represent those feelings and commitments. CIT Y OF MURRIE TA RECRE AT ION GUIDE

Each wall can be viewed from both pathways,

but is also set to interrupt the decomposed
granite path that links the monument walls. It is
this interruption that symbolizes those struggles
and abrupt interruption of life. The heights and
shapes represented in the inclined and buried
portions of the walls symbolize the moments of
rise and fall in events that occurred during these
conflicts.

MusicStar Kids 1 to 3 years
Starting children in music early is very important as it helps young
children in their physical development, development of mind-body
coordination, and logical thinking. MusicStar has developed a special
curriculum for early childhood music education that incorporates some
of the tried and true elements of the world-renowned ORFF Schulwerk
and the Kodaly Method. Through this curriculum young children will
experience and participate in music as a language to express them and
to interpret music. Rhythm instruments and tuned percussion
instruments provide young children with the tools to make music
quickly and effectively. Listening to music alone does not necessarily
improve a child's mental abilities, active music making, however, does.
It requires logical thinking, listening, and mind-body coordination. An
excellent program for both parent and child! In this class your child will
explore making music in ways you can continue at home. Parent
participation required.

Math Wonders 5 to 10 years
All of math is so much easier when students have their basic math
facts and concepts locked in solidly and quickly. If a student is missing
just a few, it can significantly handicap progress in more complex
math. 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th graders can labor excessively and
exhaustively over math because they have a few unaddressed
deficiencies or because their calculating speed is slow. In this class
each participant will be individually tested and deficiencies will pinpoint
exactly. Great techniques will then be used to help the children easily
master all the facts with speed. If your child has mental blocks with
certain problems, these will be addressed. Save your child and yourself
from hours of frustration and lay a solid foundation for great success
in math! $10 material fee paid to the instructor on the first day of
class.
