Looking for work-camping or volunteer for summer

[nwcountry]

Does anyone know of a place in Pennsylvania I might find a Summer job? I have a nice Jayco 5th wheel to use (my friends bought it for me to live in) and eventually, buy from them if I choose to. I thought it might be good to grab onto a Summer/seasonal job up there in PA (moving from Oregon) where I could camp and work for pay or volunteer. I could do either.

I will start by searching PA for it's National Parks etc. This is just an idea, and being a single woman (divorced) it may be hard to find anything that doesn't need a "couple". I don't know though because I haven't looked yet Just thought I might get a jump-start from the pros ( flatter, flatter) Denise

Check out Volunteer.gov Home Page. It is a clearing house for volunteer positions at Federal, State and local agencies. Don't worry about being a single. We have met lots of single people who volunteer. Sometimes the position requires more hours per week from a single person compared to a couple. For example some places want 24 hours a week from a couple, 32 hours from a single. In our experience one of the best agencies to volunteer with is the US Fish & Wildlife Service, who administer the National Wildlife Refuges. Good luck, hope you find something that suits you!

I just ran a search on volunteer.gov and there are currently 32 openings in Pennsylvania.

Great resources! Thx

You are very welcome.
I finally just did up a document that had all the links that I have collected for various things. This way if anyone wants information I can either copy and paste them to them or just print the doc out and just hand them to them instead of trying to remember them all.

oh the rvunfriendly.com is no longer a workable link but I did find these 3 to take its place
