Riverfront Pathway along Cowlitz River in KelsoKelso War Memorial and Park
Located directly across the street from the new Kelso police department and some city offices, this little park is dedicated to local residents that gave their lives in World War I, World War II, Vietnam, and Korea.
The park features several nice picnic tables and benches, and fairly well maintained grass areas and flower beds.
Due to surrounding buildings, the sun doesn't seem to reach the park except in peak summer months.
The park is located on the SE corner of the intersection of S Pacific Avenue (old highway 99) and Oak Street. While Pacific Avenue is busy and somewhat noisy, Oak is a fairly quiet street and it is more pleasant the further away you can get from Pacific.
A memorial stone in the park gives the names of those being memorialized, and the conflict they fought in.
