Welcome to Exploding Whale Memorial Park

June 16, 2020 | jnettlebeck

Oregon’s newest park might have the best name in the history of names.

‘Exploding Whale Memorial Park’.

This amazing title comes from the local governments decision to blow up a dead beached whale that washed ashore back in the day.

The community actually suggested and voted on this name, so it was a big team effort.

Really, this is truly an amazing name for a park.
