No visit is complete to a town without seeing all of the sites and monuments of the area. The Hail to the Sunrise monument in Mohawk Park is one of these sites. This monument is dedicated to the Mohawk tribes of Massachusetts and New York as a reminder of the beautiful heritage and aid they provided during settlement. Visitors are greeted by an Indian chief with his arms raised high to the sky welcoming the sunrise. A reflecting pool that sits by is circled by stones from over 100 Native American tribes. Visitors can purchase a mini-monument to take home.
