Brazos Bend State Park, a premier park in the Texas State Park system, is currently seeking volunteer park hosts. The duties of park hosts will vary, but commonly include minor maintenance and repairs to grounds and facilities, general housekeeping, assisting park staff with interpretive programs and special events, fee collecting via computerized registration and assisting visitors by providing general information. Park hosts work approximately 25-30 hours a week and, in exchange for those services, the hosts are provided with a campsite during their stay.
