Volunteer Opportunities
Bring a Work party to Camp. There are always projects going on at camp that don't require special skills. From Trail Maintenance to Firewood splitting to Brush Clearing to Erosion Control. If you can organize a team of people, we can feed and house you! Call the camp office to get more ideas and information.
Bring a Skilled Friend to Camp. Do you know a someone with a skill in the building trades or someone who’s a 'jack of all trades'? We can use them! Bring them to camp...because there is always something that needs to repaired, replaced, installed or assessed. We have big plans but rely on our friends and volunteers to get things done.
Bring Yourself to Camp. Volunteers are always needed in one form or another. Especially on weekends, we need retreat hosts, dishwashers, camp assistants and the list goes on. Come for a week or a weekend. Live in our Christian community...we'll house you and feed you and keep you busy!
Ministry Volunteer / Camp Pastor: Enjoy a week of ministry outdoors this summer. Responsibilities may include: Leading devotions on the daily theme for campers and staff, being a resource for staff in their Bible studies as well as their own personal faith journeys, assisting campers and staff in planning worship experiences, hanging out, and playing! Youth Workers, Pastors and their families will be housed at camp free of charge.
Retreat Host: Come spend a free and relaxing weekend at Luther Glen in exchange for hosting one of our weekend retreat groups. Responsibilities include: being present as the group arrives, giving a welcome orientation on the first night, providing ongoing hospitality by being present for meals, checking in with group members to make sure they have everything they need, and giving a thank you with closing reminders at the final meal. After the group departs, the retreat host will make sure the building is closed down (lights off, doors locked, coffee pot off, etc.). Assisting in the kitchen is optional. Training will be provided for all who are interested.

Responsibilities will include: Collecting medications from campers on Sunday and returning them on Friday morning, dispensing medications during the week, being available to provide first aid if needed, and being ready to provide a little TLC for homesick campers.
