(Jan. 1, 2021) — The Haddam Veterans Memorial on the Higganum Green is getting a facelift. According to Rick Annino of the Haddam Veterans Museum, a dedicated group of veterans and volunteers have removed the four bronze plaques, removed the old mortar, and will re-point the entire monument. Right now it’s covered as they heat it to dry it out before they start the repairs on Saturday, Jan. 2, 2021.
After the plaques are re-installed, the monument will be sealed to help prevent deterioration. It was last worked on ten years ago.
