Foster Park arboretum is designed to demonstrate a variety of ornamental and shade trees, and provide an inviting place to stroll, meditate, etc. A few outdoor weddings have been held in the pergola.

Foster Park was dedicated during the September, 1992 YORKFEST celebration.

Geocachers can hunt for GC1W3ZH.

Sept. 2009: This long description will evolve as further waymarks are composed and other information is located on the web. A series of early 1990s York News-Times articles about Foster Park are indexed in the "Community Resources / News Index" compiled by Kilgore Memorial Library, but one has to turn to microfilm to read those indexed articles.
