Cuivre River State Park

The park began as a federal recreation demonstration area in the 1930s when workers from the Civilian Conservation Corps and the Works Project Administration^[9] constructed roads, bridges, group camps, and a picnic shelter.^[10] The state took possession of the park in 1946.^[3] Two national historic districts—Camp Sherwood Forest and the Cuiver River State Park Administrative Area—were added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
