The Michigan state Department of Natural Resources is offering free RV camping this summer for RVers who volunteer as campground hosts in Michigan state parks or state forests.
The Campground Host Program, established by the Department of Natural Resources, allows people to camp in a state park or state forest campground at no charge, in return for providing visitor assistance in the campground, officials said in a news release.
Campground hosts direct visitors to their campsites, answer questions about the park or state forest, arrange campground activities and perform light maintenance and other services, depending on the host's talents and interests.
Interested parties must be at least 18 years old, provide services five days per week (including weekends and holidays), for a total of 30 hours, serve a minimum of four consecutive weeks and furnish their own camping unit, equipment and personal items.
Although some of last year’s campground hosts will be returning this year, vacancies and a need for more hosts still exist at state parks and state forest campgrounds located throughout Michigan, officials say.
More information and an application is available online at www.michigan.gov/dnrvolunteers.
