Tasks will include but are not limited to: raking, picking up sticks, mowing, moving woodchips, planting trees, painting, washing program supplies, setting up program areas, etc. Please wear clothes you are willing to get dirty and bring garden or work gloves. We ask that all people please RSVP by May 1 so we can get a headcount for lunch. Participants must be at least 12 years of age and anyone 12-18 must be supervised by an adult.

Greet Campers at the Airport

Being greeted by a friendly face at the airport makes campers feel welcome and at home. As an airport greeter, you can take part in the joy and excitement of campers arriving to camp. Families, small groups and individuals can volunteer to greet campers as they arrive from their travels and escort them back to their flight when they leave.

If you are interested in becoming an airport greeter, please email: Campkairportvolunteers@gmail.com

 

Keep Our Camp Grounds Beautiful

We owe our beautiful lawns, gardens and camp grounds to the dedication of our maintenance and clean-up volunteers. Your family or community group can help with spring clean-up and preparations for the summer season, or maintenance tasks throughout the year.

 

Volunteer Your Time or Talents at Our Annual Quilt Auction

The annual quilt auction is one of Camp Knutson’s largest and most impactful fundraisers. Churches, quilting groups and individuals throughout Minnesota and beyond create and donate quilts for auction.
