The Museum illustrates a brief history of the CCC and how the enrollees lived in the CCC camps. Those who were involved with the CCC were and are generally proud of their association with the organization. Evidence of this pride exists in the artifacts collected by the CCCL. . The Museum offers CCC enrollees and their families, genealogists, and historians a chance to see artifacts from this era and share stories about experiences in the CCC. For visitors not familiar with the story of the CCC, the museum explains the difficulties faced by President Roosevelt and others to start the CCC in 1933. From there the epic unfolds with photographs and artifacts of CCC work projects, camps and personnel through to the closing of the CCC camps in 1942. Museum hours are Monday through Thursday 9:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. Special tours are by appointment only. Call our office at 314-487-8666 and ask for a tour given by Harry Dallas, historian and CCC enrollee. |
