 Outdoor park fire rings are enclosures in which cooking fires are kept safely contained. In the summer, they provide atmosphere, and in the winter they offer warmth. Because they are very safe to operate, they allow people to have an outdoor fire within city limits. Not only are they used in all types of parks, but they are often found in apartment complexes, areas near civic centers, and even in private back yards.
The basic principle of an outdoor park fire ring is remarkably simple. It is a circular form made from metal, stone, or brick that is resistant to the heat of the fire. Unlike fire pits that are either in-ground or above ground, camp fire rings are always elevated above ground level. This results in greater safety because there is less opportunity for stray embers to fly out of the fire into surrounding grass. The higher the rings are above the fire, the more of a wall they create to keep it contained.
We often assume that outdoor park fire rings are only used for cooking. In reality, their main purpose is to give us the first thing that was fundamental to all human cultures—an outdoor fire that we can gather around. It is often the case that people simply light a fire in one of these enclosures and sit around it like people have done for thousands of years just to share stories and talk. There is always eating and drinking going on around these circles, just as there always has been. And, of course, the convenience of an outdoor fire right there in the middle of the gathering always gives people the option to cook something over an open flame if the spirit so moves them.
Even in the hottest times of the summer, people can still enjoy the emotional and spiritual benefits of an open fire if they use an outdoor park fire ring. The enclosure allows for better control of the fire so that people can keep it burning, but not excessively hot for a summer night. In the winter, of course, we want a warm fire, and this is very easy to accomplish by simply stoking the wood or coals to get the flame to a higher level.
In the city limits of our modern human lives, we often forget how good it feels to just sit around the equivalent of an ancient campfire. However, the first opportunity to do so has the strange effect of bringing people of all backgrounds and age groups together in a circle of warmth and light. This is ideal for children, families, and friends to reconnect with each other, and the availability of outdoor park fire rings no longer limits this experience to those who camp or live in rural areas.
 People who live in apartment complexes can enjoy an open fire, as can those who live in a subdivision with a central civic center and outdoor community area. These fire rings are portable and adjustable and handicapped accessible, making them something that any municipality, homeowners association, or individual homeowner can benefit from investing in.
