In 1906, after the land had already been converted into park space, it came to light that the title of the land belonged to Mrs. Clementi-Smith. The land was purchased by the city in 1908 for $2,600. From 1909-1914, the park received improvements such as a wired and lighted bandstand used for weekly concerts, shelters, a hedge around the perimeter, and other greenery.

Administrative history

The Brandon Sun was established in 1882 by Will J. White. After White’s departure, the newspaper was operated by a board of directors until 1903, when J.B. Whitehead purchased the majority of its shares. He assumed full control of the paper in 1911 and ran it until his son, Ernest Christie Whitehead, took over in 1937. The Whitehead family owned and managed the Brandon Sun until 1987 when it was sold to Thomson Newspapers. As of 2001, the paper has been owned by FP Canadian Newspapers.
