The monument is at 200 Main Street, in front of the Community Church. It's small, but well-kept. The shrubbery mentioned by an earlier commenter has been cut away.

Monument to the Pig that Inspired the Piggy Bank

Piggy Bank Monument is about 1 1/2 blocks west of Hwy 7, in front of church. Bushes in front with a small path to monument make it difficult to see from road. Worth the stop.
