Proctor Lake Volunteer Program

Proctor Lake is always seeking individuals that are willing to donate 20 hours a week to assist the project staff with operations and maintenance projects. Volunteers are offered a free campsite for the duration of their stay at Proctor Lake, and work directly with the project staff on a daily basis. Volunteers can be assigned to a number of different roles such as:

• Campground cleanup: debris from recent flooding, painting, landscaping, etc.
  
• Equipment operation: shop tools, landscaping equipment, heavy machinery, etc.
  
• Minor maintenance repair: leaks, light bulbs, welding, park signs, etc.
  
• Office: clerical, phones, public relations, etc. Note: this position requires a high-level of responsibility and professionalism.
  
• Park Host: Greet guests and help them get settled in their designated camping area.
