Athens’ Big Spring Memorial Park Marks 30 Years Since Dedication to Early Settlers and Veterans Big Spring Memorial Park or otherwise known as the Duck Pond in Athens’ historic Beaty District is a place of relaxation, history and commemoration. The City of Athens dedicated the park to the settlers and veterans of Athens and Limestone County on August 12, 1989 with a stone marker that now rest at the base of the park’s name board. The fading inscription remarks, “Dedicated to the early settlers, men and women who served in the armed forces and kept our country free. August 12, 1989. Erected 1989.”
