EVENTS: Veterans Memorial dedication ceremony planned for Oct. 4

The Somerville Veterans Memorial Committee is honored to announce the dedication ceremony for the newly-constructed Veterans Memorial, on Saturday, October 4, 2025, at 1 p.m., at the Somerville Town Office, 72 Sand Hill Road.

The Belfast VFW will join in honoring this dedication with a 21-gun salute, the playing of taps, and an invocation by their chaplain. Somerville resident Ernestine Peaslee will be recognized as guest of honor; her family was responsible for the first memorial at Brown’s Corner, on Route 105.

All Somerville veterans, residents, and neighbors from surrounding towns are welcome to attend this historic event.

The Somerville Fire Department and Women’s Auxiliary will also participate in honoring our veterans.
