A metal plaque hangs on a granite stone wall next to some stairs leading down to Commons Beach. It reads:

This memorial plaque is now obsolete in terms of mentioning the boardwalk since a major community re-beautification project was undertaken in recent years and the Commons Beach area was re-landscaped. There doesn't exist a boardwalk anymore accept in one small section along Highway 28. I would assume there were wooden boardwalks in Commons Beach, before the beautification project was undertaken.
