Gallery Description:

"Enclosed are the pictures taken at the CCC Camp in Groton, VT probably in 1934 and 1935 by my father, Paul E. Nelson who was a civil engineer and supervisor at the job site. He married my mother in January, 1934 and they moved into the camp shown in a couple of the pictures. (She was a city girl from Worcester, Mass. and it was definitely a life style adjustment for her.) I hope at some point maybe these can be displayed in tribute to all who worked for the CCC."
