Finnup Park
The park encompasses 110 acres and includes recreation for all interests. Scattered throughout the park, visitors will find the World's Largest Concrete Municipal Swimming Pool, Lee Richardson Zoo, Finnup Center for Conservation Education, picnic areas, horseshoe pits, tennis courts and the Museum.
Finnup Center for Conservation Education
The Finnup Center for Conservation Education is a state-of-the-art facility which helps the zoo fulfill its primary mission of education. The beautifully crafted center is named for its benefactor, the Finnup family, long time supporters of the zoo and Finnup Park.
Completed in the spring of 1996, the facility houses the zoo's administrative and education divisions. Two classrooms, a large meeting room/ auditorium, an interactive television studio and a hallway full of interactive learning stations introduce the wonders of nature to over 15,000 students of all ages annually. Teleconferencing capabilities are available with sufficient lead time.
A showplace for both the zoo and Garden City, the Finnup Center is a must-see for visitors and locals alike. Open weekdays 8 am to 12 pm and 1- 5 pm and closed weekends and most major holidays. The Finnup Center is open afternoons on summer weekends as volunteer staff is available.
The "Big" Pool
Our 'little' swimming hole was hand dug in 1922 and is about half a city block in size. It holds 2.5 million gallons of water and was once known as the "World's Largest Concrete Municipal Swimming Pool!"
