Greater Cincinnati Firefighters Memorial Park
The firefighters memorial started back in 1968 with the dedication of the statue, which is the centerpiece of the park. The statue was designed by Irma Suhre and Walter Driesbach and it was modeled after Cincinnati firefighter Al McKinley. The statue was dedicated on Memorial Day in 1968 and the base of the statue has the inscription that reads, "In memory to those dedicated firefighters of the Cincinnati Fire Department who lost their lives in the line of duty."
Each year there is a memorial service on the Wednesday during Fire Prevention week in October at noon.

On behalf of the AFK to Greater Cincinnati Geocaching Project, I would personally like to say "Thank You" to everyone who has participated in an "AFK" cache. Without the great feedback, favorite points and support we wouldn't be able to continually share!
