• Tualatin’s first park was a grove of trees behind

Robinson’s store on Boones Ferry Road.

• It moved to a woodsy stretch under the Southern

Pacific Railroad trestle where 4th of July celebrations

were held.

• That park adjacent to the Tualatin’s River was

expanded with a gift from Harvey Van Raden in 1972

to become Tualatin Community Park.

• The main cause of this assignment was to identify the specific

characteristic that a community park has, be it in this case the

area and the fact that community parks are run by the

community and that they have a say in what goes on in

the park.

• The community can speak their minds to alter the park and

benefit the whole community.

• The park would feature community based attractions such

as sport facilities, toilets, relaxation areas such as pagodas, a

playground for kids, a fitness area and many many more.

• We are lucky enough to live near parks, open spaces,

and greenways know the joys they bring: the calming

views of trees and green lawns, the singing of birds,

and also the fresh air.

• Building a basketball court is far cheaper than building

a shopping mall. Yet because we have not invested in

city parks, many children have nowhere to play

outdoors
