The park provided housing for veterans during and after WWII and host hosted many celebrations and events. It has a Veteran's War Memorial honnoring area service people. Upgrades to the park adddressed safety concerns and modernized many aspects of the park in 2001. In 2009, both park shelters were painted with financial assistance from the Whitewater Kiwanis. An addition of equipment to the Starin Park playground was completed in the fall of 2009. After 3 years of fundraising, construction started on Treyton's Field of Dreams in the fall of 2013.
