We appreciate volunteers of all all ages and skills.  We do require that workers under 18 years old be accompanied by an adult (parent/guardian, church youth leader or pastor) who is responsible for them during the work camp day.

Please print and complete the release form and bring it with you. Completed form(s) will be collected by our Site Manager when you arrive at camp —  Jeff Thompson at Pilgrim Hills or Don Harding at Templed Hills.
