Volunteer Opportunities

Camp Hebron has been blessed by the commitment and experience of many volunteers over the years. The early staff was completely volunteer. This tradition continues as camp provides many opportunities to serve and receive the blessing of giving to others. These opportunities include but are not limited to assisting in the kitchen, assisting with housekeeping, answering phones, stuffing and addressing envelopes for mailings, cutting firewood, writing grants and clerking in the gift shop. Karen Frank, our volunteer coordinator, would love to talk with you about your interest and help find the perfect volunteer opportunity at Camp.

Ongoing volunteer opportunities include:

Gift Shop Manager (average 5-8 hours per week, more in summer, less in winter)
Office Assistant (one morning per week, answer phones, file, etc.)
Food Service (help with food prep and clean up, usually Saturday and Sunday)
Gift Shop Clerk (1 Saturday/month, 2-3 hours)
Maintenance (skilled or unskilled, help with grounds, cut firewood, upkeep of buildings, etc. - see list below)
