community park / wwii p.o.w. camp

The park currently has a playground, several baseball fields, a small basketball court, camping sights, restrooms, grills, a covered pavilion and a concession stand. The city is in the process of adding a walking trail and a disc golf course. It's great if you're looking for somewhere free to hang out with the family.

The grounds are those that housed prisoners in World War II. I am aware that many not in that generation would not find this interesting, however to be at a site in the United States where these prisoners were held is quite interesting. There are no buildings remaining however there is a plaque, several acres of nice grounds and the old water tower. The historical plaque gives history of the area. The park is a short distance from the main street in Princeton and the entire area can be covered in a few minutes. There are some sports fields on the grounds, however don't let that take away form the historical significance.
