Memorial & Tribute Gifts

MEMORIAL TREE PROGRAM
A memorial tree is an excellent opportunity to honor a loved one or pet. At the same time, it improves the beauty and quality of the City of Davenport Parks and Recreation facilities. The Parks and Recreation Department has chosen trees that align with current standards and viability to be included in the memorial program.

Tree pricing
Tree only: $500
Tree with Plaque: $700 (tree plaques are 4" x 6" and mounted at ground level)


Tree options
Elm Pine Oak
Maple Crab Apple Redbud
Tulip Poplar American Hornbeam Kentucky Coffee
Japanese Lilac Dawn Redwood  

MEMORIAL BENCH PROGRAM
Park benches will be positioned along recreation trails, within parks, and at recreation facilities along the riverfront. Memorial benches provide another option to honor loved ones, as well as offer a place of resting and relaxation within our parks. Donors will be notified once the bench and plaque have been installed.

Bench pricing

Bench: $4,000 (bench plaques are 2" x 10" and are mounted at the bench)


Installation

Benches are installed based on final approval of plaque wording and location.
