The park includes Kuno Garden, a Japanese garden,[4] which was established in 1989 by the local Japanese community in celebration of Gihei Kuno, the first Japanese immigrant from Wakayama, Japan. It was donated to the city as a part of the centennial project.[5] The park includes beaches and open areas for activities, such as picnicking and kite flying.[2]
