Statue of Liberty (Lady Liberty) Project |
|

The redidcation has been moved to February 1, 2009
On February 5, 1950, an eight-foot replica of the Statue of Liberty was donated by the Pikes Peak Council, Boy Scouts of America, to the City of Colorado Springs. (This was the second such statue of 200 dedicated in the United States. The first statue was dedicated in Kansas City.) Lady Liberty was located on the grounds of City Hall. The dedication ceremony was conducted by Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and Explorer Scouts of the Pikes Peak Council.
In 2000, due to remodeling and landscaping of City Hall, Lady Liberty was relocated to the Colorado Springs Police Operations building on a temporary basis. Weather and time, etc., have taken their toll on Lady Liberty. At this time, Lady Liberty is in the process of being completely refurbished. Upon completion, it will again take its place in front of City Hall and will be rededicated to the City of Colorado Springs by the Scouts of Pikes Peak Council. |
