Gila River Relocation Center

Canal Camp
Other Areas

Foundations of the evacuee-built auditorium and other high school buildings are still present in the open area north of Block 25 (Figure 4.54), but nothing remains of the outdoor theater that was northeast of the high school. A wooden home plate (Figure 4.55) and wooden pitcher's "rubber" marks a baseball field in the firebreak between Blocks 24 and 25.

Figure 4.56. Foundation of ice house at Canal Camp.

The ice house located south of Block 23 is marked by a raised concrete foundation (Figure 4.56). There are several small relocation-center-era trash dumps west of Canal Camp. Further west, the sewage treatment plant includes substantial remains of the digester, clarifier, control room, sludge beds, and sewer farm (Figures 4.57-4.59). Across the canal north of the Canal Camp administration building, several foundations and a well remain from the camp water system.
