At a time when the Great Depression was crushing the dreams of Americans, President Roosevelt created the Civilian Conservation Corps. Vermont State Forester Perry Merrill saw its potential and successfully lobbied Washington with a long list of "shovel ready" projects that created the state park system, hiking trails, forest fire protections, stream bed improvements, and reforestation projects. These helped make Vermont a leader in the sport of skiing and outdoor recreation. For the first time, the full story of the CCC in Vermont is told in these pages. Brian Lindner, Native Vermonter and historian. Marty Podskoch has been researching Vermont's CCC Camps (Civilian Conservation Corps) for many years and this book provides a comprehensive history of them. Many of the trails at Bromley ski area were built by the CCC. The dirt road from Landgrove to Mt. Tabor on Route 7 was worked on by CCC crews and my father pointed out the excellent job they did as evidenced by the good condition the road was in compared with some town roads that did not hold up as well. My father told me: "Those Boys knew how to put down a good base" and it still rings in my ears. Lyman Orton, Proprietor of Vermont Country Stores
