 In
1906 William Irvine had a dream to establish a reserve that
would enhance and protect the Chippewa Valley environment.
Mr. Irvine then donated a number of acres to the city for
this purpose. The size of the park has grown throughout the
years and is now 318 acres. It has been a recreational resource
of pride for Chippewa Falls residents and visitors for many
years.
There is a continuous sound throughout Irvine Park-Laughter.
Laughter of children playing at the numerous playgrounds in
the park, at the monkey cages and throughout the zoo.
The sites are also numerous. Picnic areas, the historical
pavilion often used for weddings and family reunions, the
