Join us in stepping into the boots of a Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) worker and learning about the daily struggles had by the young men who built our state parks. Listen to the music written in the camps and voice recordings of CCC workers while following a fictional second person narrative based on the lives and anecdotes of real CCC members. Afterwards, take a guided tour of the CCC Museum. This program kicks off a series of activities focusing on the use of Group Camp 7, a historically segregated portion of the park.
