Michigan based author Bill Jamerson will present a music and storytelling program about the Civilian Conservation Corps at the Waverly Public Library on Monday, April 13, at 2 pm. There was a CCC camp in Hampton where their major project was constructing Beeds Lake State Park. The CCC also constructed Backbone State Park. The presentation includes telling stories, singing original songs, showing a video clip and reading excerpts from his novel. Jamerson has performed at CCC reunions around the country and at CCC built national and state parks. The program is as entertaining as it is important; as honest as it is fun. It's about people both ordinary and extraordinary, with stories of wit, strength and charm.
