Camp Host

Applications for volunteers wishing to reside on-park serving as Park Hosts by working in our Visitor Centers, performing Maintenance duties and providing Customer Service to our park visitors are now being accepted for 2021/2022.

PARK/CAMP HOSTS 

Campground Host

The campground host volunteer’s primary responsibility is to assist park visitors. This includes greeting visitors, helping them get settled, answering questions, receiving comments, communicating park rules and regulations and possibly collecting fees. Campground hosts are also expected to observe activities in the park that require immediate attention by staff and/or outside emergency support. Hosts provide their own lodging (tent, camper, trailer, motorhome) and are provided a free campsite, most often with utility hook ups.

The park manager or his/her designee will approve specific scheduled hours and other assignments. Individual or couple camp hosts are required to actively put in a minimal of 25 hours per individual or 40 combined hours per couple each week in the camp host position. Any volunteer who lives onsite at our parks will be categorized as a camp host. These volunteer duties may be different then the information provided above, but the same minimal hours and professionalism is expected. (The following parks offer campground host opportunities.)
