The Appleton Common Council passed a resolution June 18 renaming Appleton Memorial Park as Veterans Memorial Park to honor the service and sacrifice of U.S. military veterans. The vote on the resolution was 13-1. The 143-acre park at 1620 E. Witzke Blvd. is the city's largest park. The name Appleton Memorial Park dates to Nov. 12, 1974. Before that, the park was named Langedyke Park, after the family that sold the farmland to the city in 1965.
