Description
This is a long exposure photo of the Navasota River at Fort Parker State Park in Mexia, Texas.
Fort Parker State Park came to be in 1935. The city of Mexia and three local landowners donated about 1,500 acres of land for the park. It is between Mexia and Groesbeck in Limestone County.
African-American men with the Civilian Conservation Corps built the park from 1935 to 1942. They completed a dam across the Navasota River in 1939, creating Fort Parker Lake.
Fort Parker State Park’s grand opening was May 1, 1941. About 700 visitors attended.
