PROCTOR PARK
Please listen to this heartfelt message from the fathers of two fallen heroes from right here in Johnson County and join UpLift as we raise funds to honor our heroes in this place of remembrance.
Proctor Park was created as a peaceful place to honor and remember all veterans and first responders, many of whom have given their lives in the line of duty. Please partner with UpLift and the Proctor Park Committee with your donation to fund a monument for all first responders who have or are currently serving. Proctor Park is located at 499 Tracy Rd in New Whiteland.
PROJECT SCOPE
Moving and expanding the Pathway of Honor from the back of the park to the entry. The monuments in this area honor first responders, past and present, who put their lives on the line every day to keep our communities safe. This will be done in honor of fallen Trooper, Aaron Smith.
In honor of Trooper Aaron Smith, who honorably served 12 years in the Indiana National Guard and 5 years with the Indiana State Police before giving his life in the line of duty on June 28, 2023.

PERSONALIZED BRICK PAVERS
We have two (2) brick walkways with Proctor Park. The WALK OF FREEDOM pays tribute to all veterans. Family members may order personalized bricks to be placed in the designated area for the branch of the military in which their loved one served or is currently serving.
The PATHWAY OF HONOR memorializes all other “Hometown Heroes” – Police, fire, and emergency responders. Brick pavers may also be purchased to be placed in this walkway.
