Geocache Description:


FDR

"The only thing we have to fear is fear itself."

Franklin Delano Roosevelt was president during a very challenging time in US history: the Great Depression and World War II. He was elected a record four times as president. A record that ultimately led to the passing of the 22nd amendment (no person can be elected president more than two terms).

FDR's presidency is well regarded by historians because he helped the US get out of the Great Depression, and was a stalwart leader during WWII. One of his first acts as president was creating the FDIC (Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation). Since FDIC insurance began in 1934, no depositor has lost a single penny of insured funds due to bank failure. FDR's first fireside chat focused on the banking crisis of 1933 and his plan to fix it.
