About

From uniforms to maps. From camp photos to artifacts. The roster of over 27,000 men that served in one of the camps in South Dakota.

Story

Preserving America's Natural Resources
1933-1942 Out of the economic chaos emerged the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). The goal was two-fold: conservation of our natural resources and the salvage of our young men. The work of America's young men dramatically changed the future. More than 27,000 men contributed to the many significant projects in South Dakota and were able to help support their families back home.

Very helpful and friendly employees, with an interesting little museum. This tourist information center has a pamphlet for any & everything that you may want to do or go see in the Black Hills. And the museum is free.

One of the few remaining, if not last, CCC Museum. Very informative, with antque reading material you can read, plenty of photos, tools, and so much more. The CCC made the Black Hills a tourist destination, building scenic roads, lakes, tunnels, and so much more!

This is a small museum but tells the story of the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in South Dakota. This program affected the lives of thousands of men and their families between 1933 and 1942. Work of a roster of enrollees is ongoing and available to museum visitors. The amount of work completed by these men, particularly in South Dakota, is nothing short of incredible. The Museum is right in the heart of The Black Hills in the Hill City, SD Visitor Center.
