Family Sells 650 Acres on East Texas Lake to Become State Park, Saying Land is ‘Part of my soul’

The Pollard family sold 650 acres of Lake Palestine shoreline in Henderson County, Texas, to the Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation for $1 million. The property, owned for 80 years, will become a state park in late 2027, offering camping, kayaking, and trails. The foundation holds the land until the state department can acquire it using Centennial Parks Conservation Fund money.
