Late afternoon Friday, April 20 – Sunday, April 22, 2012
Camp One of the Mendocino Woodlands (this site is regrettably limited in the access to the disabled access it can provide)
The annual volunteer work weekend, sponsored by the Friends of the Woodlands, requires a donation of about seven hours of work on Saturday to help prepare the three camps for the summer season. The work includes setting up tents and cots, sweeping floors, cleaning kitchens and bathrooms, as well as special outdoor projects assigned by the Woodlands Staff. We welcome people of all ages and abilities to participate. We will form a childcare cooperative based on the ages of campers.
The remainder of the time may be spent visiting with new and old friends in the beautiful redwood forest, hiking, or sunbathing at the river beaches. We’ll have group activities in the evening. There is no electricity in the cabins; however, the cabins have fireplaces. Bathrooms are located near the cabins. A light supper awaits you after your drive on Friday night. Enjoy a hot breakfast early Saturday morning and pack a sack lunch on your way to join your work party. There is a big feast Saturday night and a brunch on Sunday morning.
The site and meals are donated by the Mendocino Woodlands, so there are no registration fees for those who participate on a work detail! Each camper is expected to put in 7 hours of work on Saturday, as well as 1 hour in the dining hall. Everybody cleans up the camp before we depart on Sunday morning.
Registration is FREE!
Please, no unregistered campers! All minors must be accompanied by an adult.
