From "The CCC Parks"
by Bob Bowman:
"At Bonham, the 261-acre
Bonham State Park stands within the northern reaches of the Blackland
Prairie, an area marked with grasslands interspersed by woodlands,
near the Texas border with Oklahoma.
In developing the park, the CCC used the rocky, hilly terrain of
the area for erosion control and rccreational purposes, and built
an earthern dam to impound a 65-acre lake. Buildings of cream-colored
limestone and eastern red cedar were scattered around the park."
