Memorial Pathway

The Memorial Pathway at Guide Dogs of the Desert was created by volunteers from the USS Cleveland and the USS Pearl Harbor. It was the vision of long-time volunteer Carl Eadens who comes to our school twice a week to make sure our grounds are beautiful. Engraved marble plaques honoring loved ones are placed all along this tranquil walking path that winds around the school.
