The season in now "year around" and the need in constant. We have set aside two special weekends to focus the wrok of volunteers. WE seek groups of 2-50 to help in a wide variety of tasks, jobs, and special needs. Skill level can nne at all to professionally trained and experienced. There is a great sense of fellowship and of helping where there is a need for volunteers for churches, youth groups, and even families.
Recent projects have included rebuilding the Don Lee pier after a hurricane. Replacing the docks at teh swimming pool, roof repair, painting, screening, yard work, general repair and building new challenge on the challnege course. We like to match skill with jobs.
