History
The park is named after Alfred R. Snyder. He built a grist mill at the site in the 1860s and later on built a saw mill. In 1948, the park property was given to the county by Irene B. Treleaven, she requested that the park be named after Snyder. In 1981, 2 acres of property were added to the park and now the entire pond shoreline is owned by the county.
