Description
If you can stay for 1 month we will try our best to pick you up from the airport. Energetic couples welcome.
We are a small family run not-for-profit campground in Magnetawan, Ontario, Canada. This camp has been in our family for more than 50 years. We have 9 cabins on Lake Cecebe that we rent to families and there are also spots for tents. Our Camp is located in Magnetawan, Ontario, Canada (3 hours drive north of Toronto).
In July we run special programs for families with children who have Autism or other special needs. We also run a Vegan week and other events like Meditation Retreats.
All of us who help at the camp are volunteers. You will see that we are very friendly and believe in giving freely of our time and talents and we are looking for people who share a similar personality.

Aide
We are looking for one or two people who can help in the following areas (they are listed in order of priority):
1. Cleaning Cabins- we need someone who has attention to detail and can help us clean cabins. Cleaning would be less than 10 hours per week.
2. Childcare and Activity Coordinator - plan and facilitate creative play outdoor activities, crafts, beach fun, campfires etc.
3. Building - we need someone who has carpentry skills. We would like to build a tiny cabin. You can visit our website or look in the photos below to see a sample of one that we already have.
4. Gardening - since we are so busy running programs, we struggle every year to get a vegetable garden going. Help here would be great.
5. Trail help - we would love to make a bike trail on our property.

Autres infos...
There is so much to see and do in your spare time. We have canoes, kayaks and pedal boats which you are free to use to explore the lake. We also have a nice beach for swimming and a great beach volleyball court. There is a quaint town nearby with a beautiful park, trails etc. There are rapids nearby and artsy places to visit. But mostly, this is a place to SLOW DOWN and enjoy the beauty of your surroundings.

I could literally write down an entire book about this workaway, but I will try to keep it brief and useful for others to read as Jim, Alyssa, Asher and Fran already know how much I treasure my experience here.
