Without dedicated volunteers like you, Camp Braveheart could not continue to grow. This year we are hoping to have the biggest camper attendance yet, so encourage your friends and family to volunteer with you.
Please note, you must be 21 years of age or older at the time of camp to volunteer.
We will host Junior (Ages 7 to 13) and Teen (Ages 14 to 18) camp sessions during the week of May 26 to May 31, 2013. Both sessions share the camping facilities.
Volunteers are expected to arrive one day prior to camp on Saturday, May 25, 2013.
