Come and volunteer for a Unicamp work weekend! Give your time & take some great memories with you. Let’s pull together to help put Unicamp to bed for the winter. This weekend also features a facilitated Campfire, a Saturday night Unicamp Dance, a Sunday UU service, and a nice big Sunday Harvest Meal. 

Come help us pack up beach toys, close up cabins, clean and close up the kitchen and Dining Hall, chop firewood, and many other tasks. Bring warm outdoor clothes, a toque, extra pairs of thick socks and a warm heart! (Also work clothes, sturdy boots & gloves if you have them). All contributions & abilities are welcome!
