Ways to Volunteer

Summer Volunteers

Come up for a week and serve at camp areas like the office, health services, kitchen, and activities.

Volunteers must apply by May 1.

Work Weekends

Help prepare, repair, set up, clean up, and close down on work weekends before and after summer camp. Skilled workers, such as carpenters or electricians are needed, as well as general cleaner-uppers and kitchen workers.

Work Weekends happen every year, over Memorial Day and Labor Day weekends.
