Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) Memorial and Museum
From K-7, 1 mile east on K-277. Just inside the state park entrance a memorial honors not only the CCC workers who built this lake in the 1930s but also the 3.5 million men who were part of the CCC, a New Deal federal program. Recognizing the park's history are a bronze statue of a CCC worker, a one-and-a quarter-mile memorial trail past artifacts used to build the lake, interpretive signage, and a small museum inside a unique stone structure formerly a water tower. Museum is always open.
