The Freeman Center is a 3,485-acre (1,410 ha) plot of land between San Marcos and Wimberley, Texas.
The two brothers would utilize the land for weekend getaways which included: hunting, hiking, and iconic poker games.
Per perpetual trust, Harold Freeman bequeathed 3,485 acres of ranchland to Texas State University (formerly Southwest Texas State University) for farming, ranching, game management, educational, and experimental purposes.
Joe Freeman's land, located adjacent to the university's site, was eventually managed by Frost National Bank.
