Ruth Whitfield Park, Kallangur (Qld.)

Named in honour of Ruth Whitfield who with her husband were storekeepers in Kallangur and then involved in Real Estate. Ruth was a dedicated business woman, she loved Kallangur and had great dreams and aspirations for the area and the community. She felt that the road reserve near Yebri Creek would be a good area for a park - an inviting entrance to Kallangur. She sought support for her idea from the Lions Club. Tragically she was killed in August 1972 at age 36. This park is name in her honour.
