Single camper for workamping?

I did a search and found nothing about a single camper doing the workamping. A lot of the requests I see are for couples, but my little dog would be of little value.

I suppose just ask before I get there would work ;)
  • I am looking for Campground Hosts in Southern Virginia for this summer and am happy to hire single hosts. If you may be interested, contact me. Thanks!
  • We just met a single lady at Manatee Springs State Park that is workcamping there. She said it took her a couple of years to get in but she loves it.
  • We've met several singles volunteering or couples where only one works they usually do 32 hrs though not always.
  • We see lots of single work campers in the Oregon State Parks system. The only difference is they ask for 30 hours a week for a single vs 20 hours each for a couple. Many of us often do way more because we love what we do.
  • I've done single camphosting for several years and no problems.
  • National Park Service prefers couples for volunteer work because they get twice as much work for the same RV site. Many singles just work twice as many hours.
  • I workcamped for 8 years without any problem. Also volunteered for National Park Service and never an issue being by myself with my dog!
