Victory Oak Knoll WWI Memorial

Victory Oak Knoll requires repair due to storm damage

A recent storm caused a massive oak limb to fall and severely damage the beautiful entryway to the knoll. This will require professional repair.

The fence was also destroyed - we plan to install a split rail fence along the perimeter to replace it.

We also plan to remove the honeysuckle returning across the entire knoll. This is an ongoing project, and we need to rent expensive machinery (operated by volunteers) to remove this.

Your generosity will help us repair and restore the knoll to its original beauty as it honors those from Montgomery County who gave their lives in World War One.

The Victory Oak Knoll Memorial honors - and is inscribed with the names of the citizens who served in WWI from Montgomery County Ohio (many of whom lost their lives).

Boy Scout Troop 193 in Kettering Ohio and in cooperation with the City of Dayton, has helped maintain Victory Oak Knoll for over a decade This includes landscape beautification, maintenance of the flag, as well as Eagle Scout projects (replacement of the path leading to the memorial and an information board describing the history of Victory Oak Knoll).

The Victory Oak Knoll needs ongoing care and maintenance, BSA Troop 193 wants to continue to preserve the history of this important memorial. The funds from this campaign will allow us to complete some much needed landscaping care and maintenance of the grounds surrounding the memorial. 

If you would like to visit the Victory Oak Knoll, it is not easy to find if you are not from the immediate area. It is on the Western edge of the Community Golf Course in Kettering, OH.

The address is 2917 Berkley St Kettering, OH
