Ben's Review: 
There is lots of old stuff found in the ground, it looks like soldiers stuff and doctors stuff. (There was an Army hospital here).

Dad's Notes: 

A combination Army Fort Museum and City Park. Old Adobe buildings (reconstructed and original), make up the museum portion of this park - all about the old Fort, the cavalry and the Apache Indians from the area - including some great photos. A large 1880’s picture of Tucson taken from ‘A’ Mountain.

There are a lot of old artifacts found from both the fort and some ancient Hohokam pottery found when the baseball field was redone.

A great Picnic site with plenty of tables and a playground. There is also a nice duck pond, many ballfields and a large swimming pool - open year round and great prices ($2 adult, $.50 kids). Recommend hitting this park weekdays or off season - promises for a great family afternoon!
