The park is named for Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, leaders of the Lewis and Clark Expedition of the American West who journeyed across the western frontier of early America from 1804 to 1806. The expedition's only casualty, Charles Floyd, was lost near present-day Sioux City.

Some of the amenities at the park include a concession stand, handicap accessible elevators, a team shop stocked with Explorers merchandise, a press box, and 4 VIP air conditioned suites.
