The property for the Wally Chryplywy Nature Park was donated to the Town of Beausejour by Mary Chryplywy in memory of her husband Waldemar Chryplywy, whose family emigrated from the village of Lobyanky Veshy, Ukraine to Ladywood, Manitoba in 1904. Chryplywy served as a municipal councillor in the Rural Municipality of Brokenhead from 1949 to 1951. A cairn at the site was dedicated on 6 August 1989.
