History in
a Pecan Shell
The community is not as town per se and only came into existence in
the early 1970s as FM 1960 was being developed from a two-lane blacktop
road. It didn’t incorporate and is described in the Handbook of Texas
as “a large subdivision [with] country clubs and golf courses in the
vicinity of Cypress Creek." Outside of the housing, Champions
is made up of strip shopping centers, retail businesses and restaurants.
Comparison with the Panhandle ghost town of Champion,
Texas may be interesting for people who appreciate contrasts. |
