Farm Owner Details CCC Camp Move at Boonsboro
Mrs. Roger S. Schlosser, owner of the Schlosser farm since last year, says the CCC camp may relocate if adequate compensation is not provided. The camp has used about ten acres since 1985 with unfinished promised improvements and ongoing public interest. A site near Frederick, three miles west on the Klein farm, is being considered. CCC boys live in tents as buildings were demolished. Soil Conservation Service declined to comment.
