Highlands Hammock State Park - Sebring FL - Otters at Cypress Swamp Trail - 1 15 06
While in Sebring FL we decided to take a ride to the nearby Highlands Hammock State Park. As you enter the Park following Hammock Road and driving the Hammock Loop Drive. At the midpoint of the loop, park your vehicle and take the Cypress Swamp Trail’s elevated catwalk through the wetland, where at a certain point we seen Otters swimming in the pond and playing hide and seek with us. We also see some wildlife and ended up at the Museum plaza where we had some snacks at the restaurant and enjoyed some live music going on at the time.We did not visit the campground in which we stayed so many times but its the typical State Park type campsites with mostly dirt. The sites have water and 30amp electric hookup. No sewer but they have a dump station on the way out of the campground.

Civilian Conservation Corps
The Civilian Conservation Corps was a public work relief program that operated from 1933 to 1942 in the United States for unemployed, unmarried men from relief families as part of the New Deal. Originally for young men ages 18–23, it was eventually expanded to young men ages 17–28. Robert Fechner was the head of the agency. It was a major part of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's New Deal that provided unskilled manual labor jobs related to the conservation and development of natural resources in rural lands owned by federal, state and local governments. The CCC was designed to provide jobs for young men, to relieve families who had difficulty finding jobs during the Great Depression in the United States while at the same time implementing a general natural resource conservation program in every state and territory. Maximum enrollment at any one time was 300,000; in nine years 3 million young men participated in the CCC, which provided them with shelter, clothing, and food, together with a small wage of $30 a month.
The American public made the CCC the most popular of all the New Deal programs. Principal benefits of an individual's enrollment in the CCC included improved physical condition, heightened morale, and increased employability. Implicitly, the CCC also led to a greater public awareness and appreciation of the outdoors and the nation's natural resources; and the continued need for a carefully planned, comprehensive national program for the protection and development of natural resources.
