California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation Growlersburg Conservation Camp # 33
Growlersburg Conservation Camp #33, located in Georgetown, CA, is a joint operation between the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE). The camp's primary mission is to support local, state, and federal agencies in responding to emergencies such as fires and floods, while also engaging incarcerated hand crews in community service and conservation projects throughout the year. Established in 1967, Growlersburg Conservation Camp #33 initially housed 80 incarcerated individuals who served as hand crews for firefighting and public service projects. Over the years, the camp has expanded and now accommodates up to 120 incarcerated individuals. With the use of mobile dimension sawmills, the camp produces stock for building picnic tables, which are sold to various public agencies. In addition to firefighting, the camp's hand crews engage in a range of projects, including constructing fuel breaks, maintaining trails, and providing general maintenance and grounds care for community parks and facilities.Generated from the website
