AVM Expansion 2023

Memorial DayOn April 26, 2023, the Anthem Community Council voted to expand the Anthem Veterans Memorial Circle of Honor (PDF). The work was sole sourced to the original Anthem Veterans Memorial (AVM) builders, Haydon Corp. The expansion included:

  • Expanded the Circle of Honor by adding over 3,000 pavers to commemorate veterans.
  • Moved the sponsorship pavers to a new location between the benches outside the Circle of Honor.
  • Redirected water from rain and sprinklers away from the AVM.
  • Added high-end artificial turf behind the benches to provide dust control and a barrier against mud on the pavers and soften the aesthetics of the paver hardscape.
  • Added additional lighting to highlight the AVM at night.
  • Added two small sidewalk entrances to the AVM on each flower bedside to enhance access during events and classes at the AVM.
  • Modified the existing plant beds to accommodate the Circle of Honor expansion.
