Notes:
The following is a response to the CAT Volunteer Camp Questionnaire and is dated 12/29/08:
Does your site have a volunteer 'booked through' date? not at the moment, but it depends on the amount of large groups we get at a given time, we might become booked
What is your capacity for volunteers at any one time? 70
Do you charge a fee and what does that include? To help us cover our utilities and material costs for assisting the residents here whom we serve, we do ask $20/person/day for our short-term volunteers (those working with us for one week or less) up until March. Starting March, for short-term volunteers, we are asking $25/person/day. For our long-term volunteers (those working with us for more than a week), we ask only a one-time fee of $70.
Do you provide meals (if not, are there kitchen privileges available
to volunteers)? We provide the food and the kitchen, and volunteers organize the cooking
What type of housing accommodations can volunteers expect (ie. hot
showers, bunks, bathrooms, etc.)? We have both indoor and outdoor hot water showers, bunk rooms, heat, air conditioning, and bathrooms, as well as kitchen/refrigerator space.
Do you accept groups only or are individuals welcome also? We welcome both.
Do you accept all denominations/unaffiliated groups? Yes
What is the minimum volunteer age? 18
Do you provide work orders/projects to volunteers? Yes
Will volunteers be transported to work sites? Yes

What types of projects will volunteers be working on? The specific housing needs addressed by our project include roofing, gutter repair and replacement, siding, gutting, sheet rock and drywall installation, mudding, priming, painting, flooring, fencing, yard work and cleanup, landscaping, etc. At times, when we have the talent available, we also do other community projects such as artwork and murals, and we could also use a grant writer and a web designer if a volunteer has either of those talents.
What are your most urgent volunteer skills needed? Skilled construction (in any field: roofing, drywall, etc) to lead and instruct groups of unskilled volunteers.
Do you train unskilled volunteers? Yes, including proper safety training.
