Starved Rock State Park: The Work of the CCC Along the I&m CanalVisitors to Starved Rock State Park are often struck by the grandeur of its rustic lodge. They marvel at its massive fireplace and hand hewn logs. Yet few realize that this structure is a tangible reminder of the Civilian Conservation Corps, which in the 1930s provided work for young men left unemployed by the Great Depression.

Visitors to Starved Rock State Park are often struck by the grandeur of its rustic lodge. They marvel at its massive fireplace and hand-hewn logs. Yet few realize that this structure is a tangible reminder of the Civilian Conservation Corps, which in the 1930s provided work for young men left unemployed by the Great Depression. Starved Rock Lodge was one of the biggest projects of the "CCC boys" along the Illinois and Michigan Canal, but it was far from the only one. Working as a team and living in camps from Willow Springs to La Salle-Peru, they built facilities that transformed the old canal into what became the I&M Canal State Trail (1974) and the nation's first National Heritage Corridor (1984). President Franklin D. Roosevelt's nation-wide program preserved the landscape from the ravages of soil erosion, flooding, and deforestation. In the process, the young men built beautiful parks, buildings, and shelters that we use and admire today.

Safe, Affordable, Palatable, and Non-GMO Fast-Dissolve Melatonin
I was very happy and satisfied with this 5mg fast dissolve melatonin product. It is safe and effective-I fall asleep within 20-30 minutes after taking it. After trying different dosages and types of melatonin over the years, the 5mg fast dissolve melatonin is what works best for me. I wake up feeling alert, refreshed, energetic and attentive without any grogginess or "hangover" effect. The tablets' taste and texture are very palatable and tolerable, and the tablets dissolve thoroughly and quickly. The bottle is easy to open and close but is not child-safe. I also chose this product because it is GMO-free and made in the USA, both of which are important to for any supplement products that I consume. It is also free of the major allergens and is a vegetarian formula. This product is a great value in terms of price as well (200 tablets for less than $10). This bottle will last me almost 2/3 of the year.
