Volunteer/Retiree Service
 

We love our Volunteers!!!

If you have time and energy to share, we'd love you to share your gifts with us.  We have organized volunteer time listed below, however,  if you would love to share your time and talents at another time, please contact us (616) 842-4478.

All times listed below are "Free" camping at the Grounds.

Family Service Weekend:  May 2-4, 2008

Enjoy a Free weekend of camping!

Come and join us from Friday night to Sunday and help clean up the Grounds (raking leaves, picking up branches, cleaning the beach, etc.).  A great way for your children to earn service hours for school.  You may drive in and help out as well.  Breakfast and lunch will be provided on Saturday and our Spring Potluck Dinner and program will be Saturday evening.
