This Winnipeg park, previously known as Bayview Place Park in Transcona, was renamed the Kinsmen Legacy Park and dedicated to volunteers of the former Kinsmen Club of Transcona. A commemorative arch was constructed and a plaque was unveiled in May 2014 by Transcona Ward Councillor Russ Wyatt. Chartered on 1 April 1947 and incorporated on 12 February 1960, the Club was active in the community and the funding of local projects.
