Other Camp Volunteers
The Salvation Army Pine Lake Camp is a non-profit organization and, as such, we rely on volunteers throughout most of the year to help us with many on-site projects. We are always grateful to individuals or groups who choose to spend their spare time with us.
Volunteer opportunities will vary throughout the summer, but here are a few areas where we may need an extra hand this season:
Assistant Cabin Leader: assist Cabin Leaders with supervision of cabin groups, camper devotions, leading options, evening program, provide staff relief, and more! Duties will vary based on the needs of our team for that week.
Hospitality: assist Hospitality Staff with regular daily duties to ensure the cleanliness and comfort of the camp and its guests.
Kitchen: assist Kitchen Staff with the smooth running of the dining hall (ex: dish pit, dining hall clean up, some food prep assistance). A current Food Safe certificate is required.
Maintenance: assist Maintenance staff with general upkeep of the camp (ex: lawn maintenance, various building/equipment repairs, build campfire, pest control, etc.).
