While at Buffalo Point campground on the Buffalo River in Arkansas we met a couple that was the campground host. They was to be there for 2 and 1/2 months. My wife really was into the hosting and wants to do this next year. So far digging through the numerous locations we are still unsure what to do to get started.
1. check out
Volunteer Opportunities 2. Prepare a brief cover Letter a sample is available on the below Volconus link.
2. Prepare a brief resume, a sample is available on the below Volconus link.
3. Email the cover letter, resume and specific application if required by the volunteer vacancy announcement for the vacancy position you are interested in being considered.
I was a Human Resource Manager for 9 years, and I still use the sample letters on the volconus link, and adjusted them as I gained experience.
Keep in mind that a lot of agencies have volunteer managers/coordinators as an additional duty. You may/may not get a response. If they are interested, they will contact you.
Don't take not being contacted personal. Keep applying for locations.
Also, if there is a location you are interest in, and they do not have a vacancy announcement, you can do a search, contact them directly by telephone to let them know your interest.
Good Luck.
