RV'ers - Opportunity for Summer-Fall 2017
We are especially looking for a couple with an RV to volunteer from early August through October 31. Duties include a mixture of assisting with interpretive tours, fee collection, staffing the Eastern Bookstore, and general visitor services. RV Volunteers each generally work 32 hours a week.
An RV pad with the usual hookups is located a short walk from the Visitor Center in a secluded, pleasant location in a non-public area of the park. Wifi is available. Laundry facilities are located in the park maintenance building.
Background checks are required and fees will be covered by the park.
