History
The previous Masterton showground was acquired by a local committee in 1918. Brothers Donald and Robert Cameron acquired the land for Memorial Park and the park commemorated their last name and their father and uncle Lieutenant Norman Cameron, killed at Gallipoli.

The grandstand was blown by a storm in 1934, and during the Second World War the grounds were used by the New Zealand Army.

In 2008 the park was renamed Trust House Memorial Park for sponsorship reasons. In 2015 at the cost of NZ $2.1 million the park was renovated to add a turf ground, stadium lighting and redesigned fence lines and footpaths.
