In 1892, a determined family embarked on a journey that would forever shape the landscape of Tweed Heads South. James and Sarah Sullivan, along with their nine children, traded the familiar comforts of Jiggi for the untamed beauty of this coastal region. This, my friends, is Sullivan Park. Sullivan Park stands as a testament to their pioneering spirit. The park commemorates the Sullivan family, who carved a life out of this once-wild terrain. Their arrival marked a new chapter in the area’s history. They transformed the land, building homes and establishing farms. They faced hardship and uncertainty with unwavering resolve. On Wednesday, 8th November 1995, this park was officially dedicated to their memory. The inscription at the park entrance tells their story. It speaks of James and Sarah, their children Annie, Emmie, James, Sarah, Minnie, William, Robert, Vera, and Thomas. It paints a picture of a family united by a common purpose. Sullivan Park isn’t just a green space. It’s a living tribute to the resilience and vision of the Sullivan family. It’s a place where the echoes of their laughter and the fruits of their labor still resonate. As you stroll through this tranquil oasis, take a moment to appreciate the legacy they left behind.
