About the VIP Campground Host Program at Greenbelt Park.
Greenbelt Park is a retreat from the pressures of city life and a refuge for native plants and animals just twelve miles from the White House and Capitol.

The host will volunteer for three or four months depending on park and host needs. The host duties does not include collecting campground fees.
The process includes applying online or in person, answering a questionairre, and final selection.
We usually select the hosts from nine to twelve months ahead of time.
