A $20,000 contribution from Miller United Real Estate added support for the proposed Heroes Hall at the Douglas County Fairgrounds in Castle Rock. The county announced the donation Sept. 16.

The planned center would bring veterans together with service organizations and county benefit assistance. Founding partners include the American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Douglas County Veterans Monument Foundation and the county’s Veterans Service Office.

The county estimated construction at $15 million. The donation is one contribution toward that broader effort, rather than evidence that the full cost has been raised or that the building has opened. Heroes Hall Foundation leaders described a place for services, community involvement and connections among veterans and their families.
