Volunteer with Eagle Bay Camp!
Our camp runs on the heart, dedication, and energy of volunteers. Every meal served, every cabin cleaned, every activity led, and every camper cared for happens because people like you step up and invest in this place.
Our summer camps are our season of biggest need when it comes to volunteers, but we do have an ongoing need for volunteers to support our work and ministry throughout the year. In the spring and fall, we are host to many schools, churches, and community groups.
The goal is the same: for Eagle Bay Camp to be a place where lives are changed!

Fall & Spring VOLUNTEER Needs
Camp is a place to serve, play, and build community. Throughout the spring and fall we invite groups to do just that - to come out during one of our retreat weekends to serve, play, and build community. Some examples of the types of groups that come out are: friends, a church small group, or families.
The service is primarily focused on our dining services:
- basic meal preparation
- meal service
- cleaning dishes
- preparing dining hall for the next meal.
The play comes both as you serve together, but also in the times off. Where you will have an opportunity to enjoy the beautiful Shuswap, get on the water, enjoy our sports areas, or sit around the fire together.
And of course, in all of this memories are made and the community you are with is enriched together.
Here are the dates and approximate size of group needed:
Sept 11-13 (Community Group) - 4+
Sept 13-17 (Cedar Christian School) - 6+
