The Basic Work Agreement:

Candy Hill Campground generally hires work campers both as couples or as individuals and each on slightly different terms.

Generally, Candy Hill Campground will provide a campsite consisting of a pad for your rig, equipped with water, electric and sewer hookups.  Wireless Internet is also available, and service may be arranged directly with the provider.

 Job responsibilities will be assigned according to the abilities and preferences of each work camper, in conjunction with the needs of the campground.  Duties may include some light grounds keeping including mowing, weed-whacking, and planting and tending flowerbeds.  Maintenance tasks consist of general electrical and plumbing upkeep and repair.  In the winter, plowing snow may be a necessity.  Occasional cleaning of the bathhouse, rental cabins, club lounge and pavilion are also responsibilities that may be assigned.  Security may be assigned as the job of a work camper, this is generally after they have mastered escort and site familiarization.  Candy Hill prides itself on escorting all incoming campers to their sites, so escort service is a possible job assignment.  Additionally, work campers may be asked to pump propane, if already certified to do so, or to take the brief course enabling them to become certified.  Finally, all work campers assist in greeting guests and providing general customer service.

For Couples, the first 12 hours of work per week, per person, cover the value of the campsite.  For Individuals, the first 24 hours of work per week, cover the value of the campsite.  Hours worked in excess of 12 for couples and 24 for individuals are paid at the rate of $8.00 per hour, payment to be made by payroll check within five days following the l5th and the last date of each month.  Days off include at least two days per week, which a couple may take separately or together.  Additional time off may be arranged by providing seven days advance notice.  Overall, hours are quite flexible and may be arranged with Candy Hill’s General Manager, on a weekly basis, according to the needs and desires of the individuals and the Campground.  Perks include discounts on store merchandise and on LP gas.

Candy Hill Campground maintains a smoke-free environment in all our buildings and while on duty (even outside).  It is important that this NOT pose problems for employees.

Members of work campers’ families are welcome to visit and to enjoy all facilities of the park with approval from Candy Hill's General Manager often at no charge.  If guests plan to use a site for an RV, work campers may opt to work additional hours to cover the cost of the site, in lieu of their guests paying site fees.

A $250 deposit for your site reservation will be required but it will be refunded with completion of your contract.
