Roosevelt came up with a brilliant plan: the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC). Single men, aged 18 to 25, got the chance to work in public forests and parks. In return, they'd get food, a place to stay, and even some pocket money. Plus, they'd learn useful skills while they worked., Camp Mohican, comprised of Companies 1530 and 1570, was set up in Loudonville. The land had eroded, and the goal was to bring back the thick forests that once dominated the landscape., In 1949, when the Ohio Department of Natural Resources was created, a portion of the Mohican State Forest was designated as a state park not just to preserve its beauty, but to also provide fun and relaxation. Originally known as Clear Fork State Park, it was renamed Mohican State Park in 1966., Mohican-Memorial State Forest is a multi-use forest that includes sustainable timber management, public hunting, biological diversity, watershed protection, and serves as a demonstration of sound forest management.
