VOYA Historic Structures Repairs and Painting: The project will preserve the five historic structures that are in the National Historic Register. The buildings were constructed in the early 1920s and 1930s by the state of Minnesota and Civilian Conservation Corps. The building represent the rustic characteristics of the federal relief program of park structures constructed throughout the nation in the 1930s. The work that will be accomplished in this package will protect the investment of previous rehab projects to these buildings. It is also a visitor destination site for us to share the significance of these structures to the visitors who come to Voyageurs. The principal purpose of the project is to support the Government's objective to provide opportunities for youth to learn about the environment by spending time working on projects in National Parks.
