Disneyland? huh? I was under the impression that it was to honor pioneers to Alaska, and was specifically the idea of one of the local Alaska Pioneers Igloos (#4, I think). There has been significant uproar over the name change, particularly from one vocal individual, Mark Centennial Ames, who has been advocating ever since the name change that it be renamed Centennial Park. He changed his name to reflect his ardent desire that the park be so named, and has run for local office with this issue as part of his platform. Deirdre 21:51, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Since there's no source on it anyway, might as well just delete the rationale for the name change entirely until something remotely citable pops up one way or the other. A quick Google isn't giving me anything useful. —Zero Gravitas 00:25, 13 May 2006 (UTC)
