The park includes a medium-sized hill which is used for tobogganing and snowboarding, and the park itself is a frequently-used venue for picnics and public events and performances. A Management Area (MA)is a term used to classify areas that are generally not covered by residential, industrial or future development characteristics.

[edit] History

The Pioneer Cemetery received its first internment in 1884. On June 20, 1905 the Nutana Cemetery Co was awarded a special grant at SW Section 20 Township 36 Range 5 W of the 3rd Meridian. The Pioneer Cemetery was also called the Nutana Cemetery, and was the first municipal cemetery for the City of Saskatoon until 1910 when Woodlawn Cemetery became the city cemetery. The Pioneer Cemetery has been declared a heritage site as of 1982. [1]

Pioneer Cemetery. Saskatoon's first cemetery was established in 1884, a year after the community was established. It remained in use until 1909 and thereafter only for those who had already established plots. Among the gravestones still standing are those commemorating:
Robert Clark, whose death in 1884 from exhaustion while fighting a prairie fire was the first in the community:
Grace Fletcher, Saskatoon's first business woman and a campaigner for women's rights;
Edward Meeres, who lost his life in 1888 in a blizzard in what is now the centre of Nutana.
Members from many of Saskatoon's other notable pioneer families are buried here. In 1969 a number of graves were moved to Woodlawn Cemetery because of riverbank slumping. City of Saskatoon. Meewasin Valley Authority.
