In 1991, the Kiwanis/Riverbank Parks Program Plan identified several program needs in Victoria Park. Since that time, the City of Saskatoon, in cooperation with Crosby Hanna and Associates and Gordon Forsyth and Associates, developed the Victoria Park Program Plan. Now a major public park, it also holds facilities for the Riverside Badminton and Tennis Club, the Riversdale Lawn Bowling Club, and a boathouse housing several rowing and paddling clubs. The park is named for Queen Victoria, the longest reigning Canadian monarch to date.
