I've seen the information about dedicating a bench or a brick on the boardwalk. What about dedicating a tree, bench, etc.. in Northside Park? How does someone go about doing that?

Another option for remembering your loved one is the Reflections of Life Tree inside the Convention Center on 40th St.  You can have a name engraved on everything from a bronze leaf for $250 up to a large stepping stone for $1500.

As Bill stated, I believe the process is the same regardless where the bench or plaque is located.
