In the park is a gazebo with a small bell tower atop and an analogue clock within. The clock was purchased and is maintained through the support of the Soroptimist International of Newport, Washington. A plaque acknowledging the generosity of the Soroptimists was mounted beside the gazebo by the Chamber of Commerce indicating that the clock was dedicated in 2000.
