Nygard Park

Prairie Sentinels Park is a community park in Deloraine featuring paved walking paths, open green spaces, and more than 200 international flags. Nineteen storyboards positioned along the paths share details about grain elevators and their local importance.

The park was originally named after fashion designer Peter Nygard in 2002, but was renamed Prairie Sentinels Park in 2020. This change honored the agricultural heritage of the region and the importance of grain elevators in its development.

The storyboards along the paths explain how grain elevators shaped the local community and its economy over generations. The flags represent the international connections and diverse heritage of people who built this region.

The park is open year-round for visitors and offers seasonal activities and outdoor recreation. The paved pathways make walking comfortable and accessible for different mobility levels.

The park maintains its international flag collection through a community adoption program where visitors can sponsor flags. Every two years the flags are systematically replaced, creating an ongoing connection between the community and the park's global presentation.
