With a storied past dating back to the early 1900s, Stratton Neighborhood Park has a rich history. It was first purchased by Winfield Scott Stratton (W.S. Stratton) and was originally named "Cheyenne Park" before becoming known as "Stratton's Park." The park was officially dedicated on June 12, 1902 and featured a pavilion, bandstand, and eight rustic bridges over Cheyenne Creek. Over time, there have been many changes to the park including a new pavilion and portions of the original 20-acre space being sold to developers.
In the late 1960s, PEO International acquired the property and built the PEO Chapter House in 1966 with a commitment to maintaining its natural beauty while also using it as a residential home for PEO Chapter members. The park remained under their ownership until it was purchased by PRCS in 2021.
