Started as the Wisconsin State Firefighters Memorail Park, Inc. a 501c3 nonprofit charity organization, the Wisconsin State Firefighters & EMS Memorial is dedicated to preserving the memory of those who have died in the line of duty. The park covers 7.5 acres located along the west side of the Wisconsin River, providing the peaceful and somber atmosphere the memorial requires. The park's existing tall trees and rolling terrain add greatly to the tranquility and serenity of the location, making it the perfect place for the memorial. A Gazebo and concrete park benches are located along the walkway leading you to the centerpiece of the Memorial Park, a life-sized bronze statue depicting two firefighting personnel coming the the aid of a fallen crew member. This statue expresses the true meaning of brotherhood to remember our fallen first responsders. The statue is flanked by the Memorial Wall.
