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)
Housekeeping (help with fast turnovers, deep cleaning projects, etc.)
Program (help with mailings, or if you have specific skills you would like to offer such as puppeteer, craft instructor, nature instructor, etc., please contact us.)

If you are interested in volunteering at camp as an individual or as a group, you may call the office at 717-896-3441 or 800-864-7747 or fill out a form on line and we will contact you.
