2011 Annual Gathering 

St. George, Utah

September 22 - 25, 2011

In 2011, Utah members will be hosting the Annual Gathering and Reunion.  Annually CCC Legacy members, guests and other interested folks meet to learn more about the Civilian Conservation Corps in the host area and convene the required annual membership meeting.  

This traveling event brings people interested in the CCC together and attendees get a guided tour of CCC heritage in many different parts of the nation.  Local history organizations, agencies, and history buffs share their knowledge of the CCC to help educate visitors. 

 Everyone is welcome and you do not need to be a member to attend.  Please come and join the fun of learning more about the CCC in Utah.
