Description: Join AMC Boston’s 20s & 30s for a volunteer work weekend at Cold River Camp! Nestled in the quieter Evans Notch region of the White Mountains, this scenic camp needs some preparation before the season begins. We’ll be painting, landscaping, and doing trail maintenance to help get the site ready.
In exchange for your hard work, you’ll receive free lodging for Friday and Saturday night, as well as meals from Friday dinner through Sunday lunch. Our group will be a dedicated crew of twenty people in their 20s & 30s, working alongside long-time Cold River Camp volunteers of all ages. After the work is done, there may be an opportunity for some optional hikes on Sunday afternoon.
Best of all? Besides your effort, this event is completely free !
