Bismarck, ND - The Bureau of Reclamation is seeking a volunteer campground host for the Chain of Lakes (West Park Lake, East Park Lake, Heckers Lake, and New Johns Lake) 2023 recreation season. Hosts are responsible for meeting and greeting campers, answering visitor questions, and helping to inform the public of rules and regulations. Hosts are provided with a full hookup campsite and a small stipend to help cover incidental expenses.
“We are looking for someone who enjoys working with the public and enjoys the outdoors,” said Joe Hall, Reclamation's Dakotas Area Manager.
The campground host site is located at East Park Lake, where the host would live through the duration of their stay. We are primarily in search of someone available to work over the busy weekends around Memorial Day, the 4th of July, and Labor Day. However, we are happy to accept applications from those available any time during the recreation season (May-September).
The Chain of Lakes is located 17-miles north of Wilton, North Dakota, on North Dakota Highway 41.
The Chain of Lakes offers free camping on any of the 62 designated campsites, a fish cleaning station, dump station, six vault toilets, and three boat ramps, providing opportunity for a variety of recreational activities.
For more information, please contact Macie Edwards at (701) 319-9216 or via email at chainlakes@usbr.gov
