On Veterans Day, the City of Zachary proudly installed the new Veterans Parkway sign above the existing West Park Road, guiding residents to the Regional Veterans Park. “We were honored to rename the street in recognition of the veterans who, because of their service, allow us to live freely,” said Mayor David McDavid.

The unveiling took place immediately following the Annual Flag Raising Ceremony on November 11th and marked the official start of the Veterans Day Parade in Downtown Zachary.

L.J. Baker, Chief Strategic Initiative Officer at Lane Regional Medical Center, Frank Corcoran, CEO of Lane Regional Medical Center, and Mayor David McDavid joined together to reveal the new sign. “Renaming West Park Road to Veterans Parkway is a powerful tribute to the brave men and women who have served our nation. As a veteran, I’m honored to be part of this moment alongside Mayor McDavid. This new name will stand as a lasting reminder of the sacrifices made and the gratitude we owe our veterans," said L. J. Baker.
