Park History

This parcel was purchased in 1997, and developed as a neighborhood park in 2002. The City received a matching grant for park acquisition and development from the Washington Interagency Committee for Outdoor Recreation.

Please note that the parking lot at this popular park often fills to capacity during peak times.  There is designated overflow parking at Peace Lutheran Brethren Church just south of the park.
