Description

The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) developed Vermont’s Maidstone State Park during the 1930s.

“Maidstone was designated by the state of Vermont as a state park in 1938. The camp areas were wilderness, but the area around the lodge was a Civilian Conservation Corps camp. The CCC built many sites with fireplaces for camping, the lodge, and a picnic shelter, which are still in use today.”
