The Township of Schreiber is please to provide an opportunity for a Purchaser to adopt and place a customized plaque on a bench, picnic table or chair in memory of a friend or family member. The gift of a bench is a lasting tribute that benefits the community as a whole by enhancing your community’s parks and open space areas.

The Township of Schreiber Staff will work with the Purchaser to select a location that meets the Purchaser’s needs as well as the Township’s Needs. Memorial benches can be ordered by the Township throughout the year. Plaques are typical installed eight to twelve (8-12) weeks following the placement of an order. During winter months access to some locations may not be possible so the installation may be delayed. A list of existing benches, picnic tables and chairs are available below. Also, if you have an area in mind that is not on the list please contact us. Cemetery locations are not available for placement.
