About Heroes Grove

Since its establishment in 1785, Dauphin County has been home to countless ordinary citizens who have done extraordinary feats. All have had one common thread: A willingness to sacrifice their own safety and well-being to protect their fellow citizens and the American way of life. Now, more than 220 years later, a movement has begun to honor these brave heroes.

Conceived by the Hon. Ronald S. Marsico and a collection of dedicated public servants, civic and community leaders, the Dauphin County Heroes Grove is being developed on a tract of land behind the Friendship Community Center in Lower Paxton Township. Dauphin County Heroes Grove will feature an amphitheater , which will set the stage for remembrance and memorial ceremonies that will honor veterans, emergency medical responders, and law enforcement personnel who have demonstrated their dedication to our communities, commonwealth, and country. It will also be the setting for a series of educational seminars, festivals and concerts.
