The Manti-La Sal NF is looking for a camp-host for Buckeye Campground for this summer season. Volunteer position requires presence at the campground Thursday-Monday with Tuesday and Wednesday off. Duties include talking/working with the public, cleaning restrooms, ensuring rules/regulations are followed, reporting issues to the FS, posting reservations etc. Please contact me if you are interested or know someone who is: Autumn Ela aela@fs.fed.us 435-636-3335
It is a volunteer position with a daily stipend of $24 as well as a free place to park your trailer, tent etc. for the summer. There are solar panels for electricity and a sewer one can hook into but there is not water. There are nearby springs, but no water hook-up at the site. There are 8 restrooms to clean, 21 campsites, 1 group site, a picnic area and boat launch. Most hosts find they can get through their duties by doing 2-4 hours of work in the morning and 2-3 hours in the evening, with the evening work being mostly answering questions as campers arrive and the morning work being cleaning the restrooms, posting the reservations, making sure all campfires are out etc. Hosts are otherwise sort of on-call in the sense that if a fire breaks out they notify the FS etc.
