Memories Fish Camp is OPEN to the public! Memories Fish Camp provides a place for individuals to access Fowl River and enjoy the area's beauty. The renovations included the demolition of existing structures, electrical upgrades, parking enhancements, bulkhead improvements, a new boat ramp, a new dock, and an ADA-accessible kayak launch.

The property was purchased by the Mobile County Commission in 2019. Moffat Nichol completed the engineering and design for this construction and renovation project. The $635,000 construction contract was awarded to J. Hunt Enterprises in April 2023. Construction began in June 2023 and took approximately four months to complete.

Memories Fish Camp upgrades were funded by the Gulf of Mexico Energy and Security Act (GOMESA), from which four of the five Gulf States receive offshore oil drilling revenue. Coastal counties (Mobile and Baldwin) and the State of Alabama receive funds from this revenue source that can be aimed toward Coastal restoration, conservation, and protection projects, which include public access-to-water projects that are central to the Mobile County Parks Initiative.
