Busy summers
with workcamps, repairing homes and helping work community
events. As always, the impact these groups made on our
community is amazing. Their willingness to cheerfully serve the
people of Hancock County made our workcamp summer a great success. |

Work Needs: We've had
workcamps for the last 19 years, to rebuild an abandoned grocery store
into our community center and to perform home repairs around our area.
Jubilee Center, has ongoing repairs and upkeep needs.
Groups: Adult
groups, or senior high groups along
with adults, are welcome for overnight stays. Junior High
students may stay overnight, if they are part of a group that also
contains Senior High youth and adults. For every five young
people, there must be at least one adult. Groups
will
receive
direction
on
jobs
from
our
staff,
but
also need to bring
their
own
work
supervisors. These
should
be
people
familiar
with
members
of the group and have had some construction experience (home
repair counts!). Groups of any size are welcome, and your length
of stay can be variable. Fees are
dependent upon several factors, including the size of your group and
your lodging requirements.
If you
are interested in reserving a camp for 2012, please call us in November
of 2011. Workcamp dates fill up very quickly.
The sooner you
call, the more likely you are to get the dates your group wants.
