East Texas News - July 2010

The large, wooden dining hall at Camp Cullen near Trinity was destroyed early Monday, July 19, by a blaze that totally engulfed the tin-roofed structure. Because the fire broke out around 3 a.m., the building was empty and none of the 110 children camping at the facility were injured. Camp Cullen is operated by the Greater Houston Area YMCA.
