Poppies to the Park is a heartfelt tribute honoring veterans with thousands of handmade poppies from near and far. The poppies will be installed along the Bicentennial Bridge, with garlands leading to Deborah Cooper Park and will remain on display through Thanksgiving. This community art project is made possible by JC Rotary Clubs, JC Parks, Missouri River Regional Library, and our incredible community. Poppies to the park has reached several of our goals since 2023. The garlands are reused from year to year with some poppies being replaced over time. 2026 Goal: The Slope – 4,400 poppies. The railing from the bridge gates to Deborah Cooper Park on Adrian’s island measures 503 feet. Once this section is completed the connection from the veterans memorial and the park will be complete!
