2021 People to Watch: Cameron Jackson
By Cynthea Corfah @lacedincyn
There’s nothing Cameron Jackson can’t accomplish when he sets his mind to it.
The 25-year-old is the president and CEO of Millennial Park, Baton Rouge’s first shipping container park. After opening in the summer of 2020, the open-air eatery has quickly become a hub for the community.
Besides providing tasty food from different cultures on the Florida Boulevard corridor and even a space for drive-in movie nights, Millennial Park also strives to help its neighbors.
Jackson has hosted free drive-thru turkey drives, flu shot and voter registration events and school supply giveaways. It is the home of Louisiana’s largest Little Free Library, where the public can donate and borrow books for free.
