Description
The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) built a camp near Coeur D’Alene in Idaho.
The enclosed images showing CCC enrollees at the camp were provided to the Living New Deal by Nancy Calle. Her father, John Griffith Calle, pictured in several of the images, was enrolled in the CCC and worked at the City Rocks Camp in 1935.

Hello. I’m hoping to find information as to where my dads’s CCC camp was located in Idaho. I have a pin that indicates he was in CO. 297 and I seem to recall him being in or around Coeur D’Alene. His name is Ignazio M. Gallo.
I do have other printed material and photos from his time there in the area.
Thank you,
Robert Gallo
