Thomas Hanley, a parksman, arrived in 1912 from the United States at the request of Pershing to serve the same post at Pasonanca, and was responsible for the original lay-out of the park.

The park also has a separate campsites for males and females, an amphitheatre, and a convention center, among other facilities.

As the water fills the pool it is also immediately drained to create a natural creek that flows down the hill.

Originally constructed to be the "Youth Citizenship Training Center" in April 1960 with the generous assistance of the city council.

It also has an aviary park for the avian species such as parrots, turkeys, and eagles among the birds.
