When we first decided to re-envision Village Pond Park as Veterans Park we also committed to re-focusing
Heroes Park. The City of Lake Forest would like to invite you to the Heroes Day Event on Sunday, September 9th at 10:00 a.m. “Heroes Day” will commemorate fallen heroes and rename the four baseball fields at Heroes Park after the following men -
- Orange County Deputy Sheriff Brad Riches
- Orange County Deputy Sheriff Darryn Robins
- Army Specialist Justin Pollard
- Army Corporal Matthew Swanson
The event is being co-produced by Community Services and Police Services and coincides with the opening day of the fall season for Lake Forest Little League.
