This park was dedicated as a World War I memorial in 1920....the American Legion Baseball Field use to be right where the children's playground is now.
In 2013 the city completely revamped this park. Playground added, baseball field moved to the west side, a walking/hiking path (over 3 miles) was added, dedicated benches everywhere, a covered bridge...a big and newer pavilion [one shown in the city link is now gone], a water pad....etc...an amphitheater...all designed for the citizens and, and large part for the kids.
"Children scuttled, climbed and dangled from a new piece of playground equipment prior to its official unveiling at Memorial Park yesterday.
"The equipment was erected in honor of "Super" Sam Santhuff who passed away Sept. 19, 2014 after his cancer returned a second time. Santhuff was six years old at the time of his death, which had a big impact on the community." ~ Fulton Sun, October 7, 2015
