Order forms for memorial bricks at the Kenosha Youth Memorial must be submitted by April 1, 2026, to ensure installation during the summer. The city will hold its annual dedication ceremony for new bricks in June at Wolfenbüttel Park, located at 5901 Third Ave.
The memorial bricks provide a permanent way for community members to honor loved ones who have passed away. According to the City of Kenosha, “Brick orders are accepted year-round for personalized bricks that are permanently placed at the memorial. Each brick serves as a tribute and becomes part of the Youth Memorial, which provides a place for reflection and remembrance within the community.”
To purchase a brick, individuals should fill out an order form available on kenosha.org and mail it to: Kenosha Youth Memorial, 625 52nd St., Room 300, Kenosha, WI 53140.
“Memorial bricks may be purchased in honor of a family member or friend who has passed away. To ensure placement next to one another, bricks for multiple family members must be purchased at the same time,” according to city officials.
Each brick will include an engraving with the deceased person’s name and their years of birth and death. The cost is $125 per brick, with payment options including cash, credit card or check made payable to the City of Kenosha.
Funds raised from these sales help maintain the memorial and also contribute toward youth scholarships.
