Alumnae Volunteer Work Weekend 2014 

The Alumnae Volunteer Work Weekend is a great way to catch up with old friends and give back to the Skyland community at the same time! We will spend the weekend cleaning, gardening, organizing, and more to prepare Skyland Hill for a successful summer. With special clubhouse events and serious Skyland bonding, this is one you won't want to miss!

Details

While this work weekend officially kicks off on Friday afternoon, we'll be welcoming volunteers throughout the weekend. Just let us know on the sign-up page when you plan to arrive and depart!

Accomodations and food are provided for the entire weekend. We'll be sleeping in the Big House, just like back in the day, so please be sure to bring your own bedding (and keep in mind that nights will get chilly). Bring your own towels and toiletries, too. If you will not be staying on site, please make a note of it when you sign up.

While this weekend is designated for alumnae 21 and older ... please know that guests are welcome, as long as they're ready to get down and dirty and sing plenty of camp songs! NOTE that each guest should register separately so that we have an accurate head count. 

Skyland will provide all of the tools and supplies for the weekend. If you have supplies of your own that you would like to use or share for the weekend, please bring them on over! Work gloves, rakes, shovels, brooms, vacuums, trowels, leaf blowers, and paint brushes are especially helpful.

Count me in!
