1941 — THE DEDICATION.
What began as a place built to house seasonal farmworkers had become an important part of Princeton’s growing agricultural community.
According to the Texas Historical Commission marker, the camp was formally dedicated in 1941 — with U.S. House Speaker Sam Rayburn in attendance.
A moment that connected this small North Texas community to a much larger chapter of Texas and American history.
Long before the goals, sidelines, and tournament crowds, history was already being made on these grounds.
THE FIELD BENEATH OUR FEET.
