Kiwanis Memorial Park is located along the South Saskatchewan River Bank and the Meewasin Trail in the heart of downtown Saskatoon. In the summer this park is very busy with people being active walking cycling running or just enjoying the beauty of the views of the river along the Meewasin Trail. This park also hosts many of the City Of Saskatoon’s summer events such as the Jazz Festival and Taste of Saskatchewan. In the winter it is much quieter with activity but is still just as beautiful. Once the park has enough snow and the weather is cool enough this park gets a lot of attention with people of all ages skating on the rink next to the Historic Bessborough Hotel. At night the tree in the middle of the rink is lit up with chromes lights and stay up until the rink closes for the season. Kiwanis Park is a tribute to Saskatoon’s war veterans and will come across some historic landmarks such as the Vimy Memorial Bandshell hone ring veterans from world war 1, a large water fountain to honour those who fought in world war 2 and more.
