The Cassels-Boykin County Park Expansion and Dr. Bill and Emily Shelton Pavilion dedication are scheduled to take place on Friday, July 9, 2010 at 10:00am. In attendance will be State Representative Jim McReynolds, Carter Smith, Executive Director of Texas Parks and Wildlife, County Judge Wes Suiter, Lake Enhancement Task Force Chairman James Slack, with representatives from the Lower Neches Valley Authority, Army Corps of Engineers, The Chamber of Commerce, and others.

Angelina County officials have been working with The Chamber’s Lake Enhancement Task Force since 1997 on developing a comprehensive plan to upgrade and expand Cassels-Boykin Park. In July 2008 the groundbreaking took place for the expansion. The upgraded county park has five new boat ramps, public restrooms, a 100 truck-trailer parking space, and a pavilion. The next phase of the upgrade will include the only handicap accessible pier on Lake Sam Rayburn.
