HISTORY

Named “Froula Memorial Courts” in 1939 in honor of Mr. V.K. Froula, who was the first principal of Roosevelt High School from 1922 until his death in 1938. Playground and name are the result of petitions initiated by the school P.T.A., because of Froula’s intense interest in recreation.

(Edited from the files of Don Sherwood, 1916-1981, Park Historian.)
