Stages One and Two of the Fred Allen Walk of Honour have been completed in the heart of the Park as a walkway around the lake.

We named the walk after Fred for a number of reasons: Fred is not only a legendary All Black player and coach from the 60s (whose record of 100% test wins remains unbeaten) he is also a local resident, and a trustee of The Memorial Park’s Perpetual Maintenance Trust.

This Trust was set up when the Park was created to safeguard the maintenance of the Park in perpetuity.
