In this study, which focused on the Yume Program (consisting of self-planning/operating programs) operated by thirty citizens groups which take place in the Arimafuji Park, Hyogo Prefecyure, a survey and analysis were conducted concerning characteristics of the citizens groups and the programs, as well as the contents of their activities, which the group representatives find important and satisfactory, for continuation of their activities. The study showed that the following factors are essential in order to continue such activities ; the sense of purpose developed in many of the citizens group representatives as a leader in park management, the organization of the Yume Program, which places emphasis on citizen self-initiative, support by the park staff, and public relations by the park administrator. At the same time, it was revealed that representatives of citizens groups are reluctant to become deeply involved in park management. It is therefore necessary for the groups to seek establishment of a system of cooperation with an organization, public or private, that has expertise in park management and/or other local organization, to further develop park management together with citizen participation in the future. The study also showed that these sustainable programs carried out by the citizens groups add extra attraction to the park, which can be regarded as the creation of a unique park culture.
