Oakland Hills Fire Memorial Park

Memorial park

👍👍 I love this place! Such a cute little walk thru the succulents. I love to see the lizards skitter away and once I did see a snake right near the path. So glad that someone has been cleaning up the planted areas. Wish folks wouldn't smoke there as that seems so counter intuitive to me.

Veterans Memorial

Memorial park

😐 This is very small memorial which is developed in the memory of those who lost lives during the World War. Veterans Memorial is located near Central Park. Flags of all military wings can be seen flying high. Few Names of those who lost lives have also been displayed but on the floor. Pay respect.
