EAGLE RIVER - The Civilian Conservation Corps helped to build parts of the Northwoods we know. However, not many people know what members of the group did.
"The history of CCC has been lost over the years, and we want to bring that back," said Libby Dorn, Trees for Tomorrow Executive Director.
The Civilian Conservation Corps was started during the Great Depression to give young men jobs, help families survive, and create a lasting legacy in forests, parks, and other sites throughout the U.S. On Sunday in Eagle River, those hard working men were honored at Trees for Tomorrow.
