1936 – President Roosevelt kicks off Manning Bowl History.
FDR’s Work Progress Administration puts Lynn men and women to work constructing the city of Lynn’s first new football stadium. The facility will be on a large field on Locust street in East Lynn. In September of that 1936, the first shovel hits the ground. The football stadium will not be ‘completed’ until June, 1938. More than 1000 workers are involved. Manning Bowl will be named for Mayor J. Fred Manning. The gray cement structure will cost half a million dollars.
