Saranac Village, NY, USA

Every year Young Life’s Saranac Village hosts hundreds of youth and young adults for camp. They have the opportunity to experience and know the love of God first hand. But it takes a lot for this camp every year to get ready to welcome their campers. Intervarsity asks for volunteers to spend a week doing manual labor – varnishing EVERY wood space (bunk beds, walls, ceilings, etc), making 300+ beds with hospital corners, yard work, window washing, deep cleaning, etc. I volunteered for Work Week 0 and enjoyed every moment of it.
