The City of Hampton and several civic organizations bought the property the following year and presented it to the State of Iowa. The city requested that the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) develop a 258.68-acre (104.68 ha) park. The CCC worked from 1934 to 1938 developing the park. They set up camp in the Franklin County Fairgrounds.
