The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) was a nationwide program during the Great Depression to put poor unemployed young men to work in national forests, state parks, national parks and the other public (and sometimes private) land. By the end of the program in 1942 over 30,000 men served in Colorado. Many helped build the magnificent amphitheater at Red Rocks. Others labored on the picturesque Rimrock Drive at Colorado National Monument. And in every national forest in the state CCC enrollees built roads and trails, many that we still use today. Now, for the first time, are over 26,000 names gathered from over forty Colorado newspapers, many Colorado camp newspapers and the 1936 and 1938 state annuals. Audretsch has written three books on the CCC in Arizona. His latest book, The Civilian Conservation Corps in Colorado, 1933-1942, Volume 1, is to be published by Dog Ear Publishing in mid-year 2017. He resides in Lakewood, Colorado.
