Grant County Family Ymca Details
The War Memorial Coliseum, built in 1928, was dedicated to those Americans who have fought in all wars. 'The Coliseum,' as it is commonly called in our community, was the home of the Marion Giants Basketball team from 1928 to 1970 (Fricke, n.d.). The Coliseum was built on the heels of the 1926 boys basketball state championship, and is associated with fond memories of many patrons of the community, both as a memorial to our veterans as well as a sports & entertainment facility. The Coliseum was also the site of the Easter Pageant from 1937 to 2003, except for a few years during World War II. Since 2004, heat and plumbing requirements were cost prohibitive in the unoccupied building. A local church has performed a scaled-down, music-only version of the pageant the last few years. However, due to recurring financial challenges, the Easter Pageant was not performed in 2008 and may not return at all (Wright, 2008).
