Dollar-A-Day Boys: A Musical Tribute to the Civilian Conservation Corps

Michigan based author/songwriter Bill Jamerson will present a music and storytelling program about the Civilian Conservation Corps, a federal works program created by President Franklin Roosevelt in the heart of The Great Depression. Jamerson will share stories about the CCC, read excerpts from his novel, show a video clip from his PBS film and sing original songs with his guitar.  He has performed at CCC reunions around the country and at dozens of CCC built national and state parks. His presentation is about people both ordinary and extraordinary, with stories of strength, wit and charm.
