Memorial Park (Omaha)

Memorial Park is a park located at 6005 Underwood Avenue near the Dundee neighborhood of Omaha, Nebraska. The park was created as a memorial for all of the men and women from Douglas County that have served in the armed forces.
==History==
Originally proposed by a local citizen in an editorial to the ''Omaha World-Herald'', a group of businessmen and leaders, including Storz Brewery owner Robert H. Storz and the Omaha Zoo namesake Henry Doorly met to discuss a memorial. A site was chosen near Omaha University, where Happy Hollow Club and the Dundee Golf Course were located. A Memorial Park Association was created, and in 1948 it raised funds to create a monument in the park.
On June 5, 1948 President Harry S. Truman dedicated the site. In 1959 the Omaha Rose Society added a rose garden, and in 1990 Woodmen of the World added flagpoles and flags along the driveway coming into memorial park.〔("City of Omaha parks & Recreation" ) City of Omaha.

Retrieved 3/28/08.〕 The park was the site of several anti-Vietnam War protests by youth activists in the late 1960s and early 1970s.〔("Omaha Is on the Alert After 4 Nights of Unrest" ), ''The New York Times.''

At Memorial Park, there are over 1,000 rose bushes, which make for pleasant scenery.
