On July 14th, 2017, The Military Order of the Purple Heart - Chapter 187, town of Evans officials and several Purple Heart recipients unveiled the new sign at the corner of Beach Road at Route 5 (near Tim Horton's) at a designation ceremony. There was a small reception at the town hall after the unveiling. In May 2015, by an act of the Erie County Legislature, Erie County officially became a "Purple Heart County," honoring those who were wounded or killed in combat.
