On the north side of the Kingfisher County Courthouse, interested citizens and businesses in the town have funded this monument to their founding and growth. It was placed on the 100th anniversary of the Land Run of 1889 which settled this area. There are thousands of engraved pavers here, on both walls.
A three foot high curved brick wall is erected in front of a stepped, slightly curved full-height wall made of engraved bricks, on which is mounted a bronze plaque which reads:
DEDICATED
THE 22nd DAY OF APRIL, 1989
To The Pioneers
who made the Run and
settled this Area
And to everyone who has
lived here or been
associated with
Kingfisher County during
the ensuing 100 years
Kingfisher Chamber
of Commerce
