Memorial Park in Danbury will be dedicated next weekend.  The pocket park next to the police station at 357 Main Street will be dedicated by the Police and Fire Departments along with City officials at 10am.  The ceremony is open to the public.  The park was built as a place of remembrance and reflection.  It's meant to provide an opportunity for people to gather and remember the first responders who made the ultimate sacrifice while in the line of duty.
