Camp Logan and the Evolution of Memorial Park
Feb. 06, 2025
Caroline Hassell is a 5th generation Houstonian. She graduated from St. John’s School, started at UT-Austin and then graduated from Stanford University. Her first job out of college was with a private rocket company (that rocket blew up off the Texas Gulf Coast). She earned her MBA from Rice and worked for Compaq Computer and TeleCheck until “early retirement.” She’s still pushing her kids towards “adulting” while she volunteers and does genealogy and historical research. She’s active in the Daughters of the American Revolution and another genealogical organization, and served as Regent of the John McKnitt Alexander Chapter of NSDAR for the past four years. She still volunteers for her children’s former schools and at her church. During Covid, she worked on some really “down-the-rabbit-hole” projects, one of which resulted into deep research on the 200+ Harris County Soldiers who died in World War 1. That led to more research on Camp Logan here in Houston. Caroline is now serving on an advisory committee for the Memorial Park Conservancy, which is planning Memorial Groves, the “remembering” part of Memorial Park under development and part of the larger 10-year plan started in 2015. Caroline’s husband Jim just retired. They have a techy son, a recent UT-Dallas Computer Science graduate, and a daughter (a recent grad of Lamar and the FFA program which has been supported by the West U Rotary for many years); she’s at HCC with a hope of working with animals in the future.  ᐧ |

At Small Places, we develop high impact urban farms in low access communities. We are passionate about cultivating healthy neighborhoods via nourishing food and engaged communities; ultimately renewing the bond between people, place and food. Small Places has been actively involved in the East End of Houston helping with food insecurity across the food desert in 2nd ward, and I believe our work aligns with the values and interests of your club members. |
