The park was orginally the playground of the nearby grade school in the early 70's and featured a small wading pond. The park was renamed and rededicated to the firefighters who lost their lives battling a propane rail tanker fire in 1973. The Memorial Monument pays tribute to the fallen firefighters and was renamed Fire Fighter's Memorial Park. Park amenities include: picnic tables and sun shelters, BBQ grills, outdoor restrooms, kid's playground equipment, soccer/grass area, and Kingman's only skate park and Frisbee golf course.
