Join us for a day or weekend of camp clean-up at Camp Farnsworth!
Troops, groups, and families are invited to help with cleaning,
inventory, painting, log splitting, and property maintenance projects
to help prepare camp for the spring and summer. If you volunteer your
time to help at camp, then you can enjoy a free night of camping on
Friday or Saturday night the same weekend as a thank you for your hard
work!
Volunteer commitment primarily includes projects on Saturday April 24 from 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. where we will provide lunch, snacks, and water. And additional volunteer time is requested on Sunday April 25 from 9 a.m.- 12 p.m.
Volunteers grade 4 and older are preferred due to the nature of camp projects and weekend tasks, but we welcome anyone that is willing to help. Additionally, to stay a night at camp, at least one adult in your group needs to have their Outdoor Adventure Workshop Training (OAW), available online on your own time for no cost.
There are so many ways to volunteer, choose the one that works best for you! We will collect details of your availability and possible overnight interest after registration.
* Choose to stay the night at camp on Friday night to volunteer all day Saturday (Saturday lunch included)
* Drop by just on Saturday to help for the day (Saturday lunch included)
* Join Saturday morning and stay the night Saturday (Saturday lunch included)
* Join Saturday morning, Saturday night, and help on Sunday before heading home (Saturday lunch and Sunday breakfast and lunch included)
* Or even stay at camp Friday to Sunday and plan to help out both helping hands days (Friday night evening snack and campfire, Saturday lunch, Sunday breakfast and lunch included)
Participants can earn volunteer or service house for any time they are helping at camp including hours that work towards the Service to Girl Scouting Bars or their school service hours.
