Please note, Adventurous Christians is a rustic environment and requires a certain amount of physical exertion and fitness. All volunteers should be in good health for potential physically rigorous projects.
Work weekends will be free to all volunteers. A donation to camp is appreciated, but not expected.
The newest building at Adventurous Christians is the Portage Haus. This building will lodge families in separate rooms. This is a year-round cabin, and has a common meeting space. It is heated by an outdoor wood boiler for in-floor heat.
Built in 2012, the Bunkhouse is a comfortable housing option at AC. This space will house one family and is heated by a propane heater, and is very close to our outhouses and main lodge.
If you are interested in attending a Work Weekend at Adventurous Christians, please contact Lina. Please include how many people will be attending, any specific skills, and arrival and departure plans.
