Virden Parks Initiative

Have you seen it yet? Your donated bottle caps have created this beautiful bench in memory of Nolan Kiel and it is now sitting outside of the Fire station on Springfield Street. The VPI is proud to have worked in partnership with the VFPD to create this lasting memory for a young man taken far too soon!

The Bottle Caps to Benches program has also created a 6' foot gray bench to be installed at one of our local parks very soon. If you would like to dedicate a bench in memory of a loved one, the cost of a 6' bench is $391.50 plus 200 pounds of bottle caps. The VPI will donate $100 toward an engraved plaque to be installed on the bench.

If your group or organization would like to help with the sorting of the caps for another bench or two, please message us on this page!

Next meeting of the VPI is Tuesday, March 17th at 7 PM
Pitman Hall, 157 W. Jackson. Please join us and share your ideas and thoughts!
