The Southwest Florida Water Management District has declared a Phase 3 water shortage. Effective 4/3, Dunedin water customers will be limited to 4 hours of potable water irrigation on their assigned day. The new restrictions will not impact reclaimed water usage.
Dunedin was designated as Florida's first Purple Heart City by the Military Order of the Purple Heart on August 3, 2006. One of Dunedin's beautiful features is Purple Heart Park, located at 300 Main Street in downtown Dunedin.
The park includes walking paths and benches, and most notable is a red stone monument dedicated to honor and pay tribute to Purple Heart recipients and those who have earned the military tribute by virtue of their bravery and sacrifice. The monument sits in the center of the park and is surrounded by commemorative bricks known as the "Walk of Honor." Purple Heart Park is also the location for the Annual Purple Heart Recognition Ceremony held every year on August 7th. Click on the tabs below to learn more.
The Dunedin Parks & Recreation Department provides a special opportunity to pay tribute to a Purple Heart recipient through the Purple Heart Commemorative Brick Program. By completing this form and donating $100, you can have a brick engraved to commemorate a Purple Heart recipient which will then become a part of the "Walk of Honor" at Purple Heart Park. Questions? Call 727-812-4531.
Each year on August 7th, the City of Dunedin hosts a Purple Heart Recognition Day Ceremony, and invites everyone to join in as we honor and pay tribute to all Veterans with special focus on Purple Heart recipients who have earned the military tribute by virtue of their bravery and sacrifice. The event is free to attend and is held at Purple Heart Park in Dunedin, Florida. View the event calendar for upcoming events and details.
