About the Location

Honoring a Veteran's Legacy

Positioned on North Wellington Place, Pat Garcia Veterans Memorial Park offers a peaceful 1.6-acre retreat that pays homage to war veteran Pat Garcia while giving the community a place to gather and stay active. This thoughtful space came to life through the combined efforts of Wichita's city government, the North Chisholm Neighborhood Association, and the dedicated Friends of Pat Garcia group.

There's something deeply moving about a space that balances remembrance with everyday life - a place where Pat Garcia's contributions are honored while kids play and neighbors meet.

Get Fit in the Great Outdoors

If you're tired of stuffy gyms, you'll appreciate the park's crown jewel: a modern outdoor Fitness Court that opened in May 2024. This impressive facility emerged from a collaboration between the National Fitness Campaign, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Kansas, and Wichita Park and Recreation.

The court features seven different exercise stations where you can work out using just your body weight - no complicated equipment needed. It's designed for nearly everyone, from teenagers (14+) to seniors, and accommodates all fitness levels. Want some guidance? The Fitness Court App offers workout routines that feel like having a personal trainer in your pocket.

A Place for Pause

Beyond the fitness opportunities, this is still very much a memorial park at heart. The atmosphere encourages you to slow down, perhaps take a seat, and reflect on the sacrifices made by veterans like Pat Garcia.

While you won't find elaborate playgrounds or sports facilities here, what you will discover is a tranquil corner of Wichita where you can escape the noise of everyday life. If you're looking to honor a veteran's memory, squeeze in a quick workout, or simply enjoy a moment of quiet, Pat Garcia Veterans Memorial Park offers a meaningful experience in a modest space.
