Programs Offered: The camp has a capacity of 200 minimum-security inmates. The Department of Forestry uses 150 inmates to perform reforestation work in the Tillamook State Forest. Ten inmates are assigned to a State Parks work crew. The remaining inmates perform camp support duties (i.e. kitchen, maintenance, laundry, boot repair work and other work necessary to support camp operations).
History: South Fork Forest Camp is located 28 miles east of Tillamook, two miles off Highway 6. Since 1951, the camp's inmates have performed reforestation projects under the Forest Rehabilitation Act. http://www.oregon.gov/DOC/OPS/PRISON/sffc.shtml
