Inscription.
Encircling the garden is Ryan's Trail, a half-mile, wheelchair-accessible path named in honor of Ryan Cenk. For his Eagle Scout Project, Ryan raised nearly $14,000 to install 15 teakwood benches along this trail, providing visitors with spaces for rest and contemplation. Though Ryan passed away in 2017, his legacy of service and passion for honoring the "Heroes All" lives on through this trail.
