Overgrown foundations mark the remains of wooden barracks that once housed the men who built this park. The Civilian Conservation Corps began work here in 1935, transporting men from Cleveland until onsite housing was constructed in 1937. The camps, called "S90," completed Paris Mountain State Park and moved on to other projects, abandoning this site in 1940. Soon afterward, America entered World War II, and many CCC men joined the armed forces after time in communities like Camp S90 had prepared them well for military life.
