Centennial Park Totem Pole |

Centennial Park is located on the North East corner of 4th and Holmes. It is so named because the Centennial Time Capsule was buried there in 1969. Later the time capsule could not be located, even by sophisticated metal detection equipment. It turned out that it was located under the totem pole.
