The Civilian Assembly Center at the racetrack became the largest and longest operating one of the eighteen, all were holding citizens until the Relocation Center camps were completed in interior areas of California and other states.

The staff and writers were prohibited from using the Japanese language and each newspaper edition had to go through multiple approvals by camp administrators before being published.
