City Of Kingman

Riverside Park is shining a little brighter this week with the installation of three new Legacy Lights along the park’s pathways. These lights are part of our Legacy Light Program, which gives community members and organizations the opportunity to leave a lasting impact on one of Kingman’s most loved public spaces. In addition to improving safety and visibility, Legacy Lights help create a more welcoming environment for evening walks, community events, and family time in the park. This program is just one more way we’re investing in quality-of-life amenities that make Kingman a place where people want to live, work, and raise a family — something we know matters as we continue building momentum through projects like Walker Park and our broader community vibrancy efforts. Interested in sponsoring a Legacy Light or learning more about the program? Visit our website for full details and participation information. Let’s keep Kingman glowing for generations to come. 💡
