From 1933 to 1942, the 5th Infantry Regiment provided two weeks conditioning at Fort Williams for CCC enrollees. Two camps were stationed at the fort. One was the administrative headquarters, the only camp in the state to serve throughout the lifetime of the CCC progam. The second camp, along with the WPA (Work Projects Administration), worked on projects at various Portland Harbor forts, including tennis courts, bleachers, swimming pool, and lily pad pond at Fort Williams.
