Good work by many shaped Tazewell County summer crews
The Tazewell County Development Corporation and later Clinch Valley Community Action coordinated up to 200 youths aged 16 to 21 across the county for summer work. Led by William C. Allison and Eli Jones Jr with Dorothy Stevens handling finances, the effort involved numerous field workers, teachers, and volunteers, promoting work ethics, safety, and financial literacy while noting hours and checks procedures.
