Every year, volunteers spend a day getting camp dusted off, cleaned up, and ready for campers!

  • Trail maintenance
  • Picking up limbs
  • Trimming bushes
  • Weed Eating
  • Cleaning swim dock
  • Removing limbs/leaves from the swim area
  • Cleaning up the Dining Hall, Kitchen, and Staff House (sweeping, vacuuming, and mopping floors, cleaning windows, washing dishes, cleaning tables, etc.)

Clean-up takes place from 9:00 AM until 4:00 PM CT each dayLunch will be served in the Dining Hall for all those volunteering (both days). No overnight camping options will be available during this time.

Volunteers must be in Grade 2 or above to participate and all individuals must sign a Camp Permission form to attend. Forms will be included in your confirmation email and must be completed and submitted online by May 27.
