The addition of the concession stand also gave the park two more bathrooms and additional storage room. Each year, the Lions' Club sponsors a car show and has used the funds to improve the park. A tractor pull is held in conjunction with the car show, and the Lions' Club is also responsible for the upkeep of the tractor pull track. Other Argyle organizations are also active in the promotion and upkeep of the park. The men's softball team was involved with replacing the roof on the older shelter house at the park.
