S-73, Tyler, PA was established on May 6, 1933, at the junction of Black Turn (Mud Run) and Tyler Roads. S-73 was located within the present boundaries of Parker Dam State Park. Company 309 was tasked with building a recreational area which became the present park. Watch short YouTube video. Other nearby CCC camps assisted with the building of the various park structures. One historic building remains at this site – the Cabin Classroom, along with the flagpole site. This octagonal-shaped building was constructed of American chestnut logs and served as camp office while the camp was active. Camp S-73 closed October 31, 1935.
