The Foundation
The Foundation’s Honorary Patron was Derrick Bowring, the last Chair of Bowring Brothers’ Ltd which was the firm that gifted the park to the city. The Foundation is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors and its mandate is to assist the City of St. John’s in the preservation, restoration, and development of Bowring Park. Over the past 25 years, the Foundation has worked diligently to offer patrons leisure and recreational activities and to make the park more accessible and inclusive.
