About Columbine Memorial

The Columbine Memorial in Littleton, Colorado, is meant as a quiet place for peace and reflection. It remembers people affected by the April 20, 1999 events at Columbine High School, including those who were hurt and those who died that day. It was dedicated and opened to the public on September 21, 2007. It sits in Clement Park, behind the school. A non-profit organization runs the memorial and cares for its grounds. The board of directors discourages large items and may remove inappropriate ones, though small tributes are allowed.
