Volunteer Day at Surprise Lake Camp
Sunday, April 26, 2026
9:30 am – 3:30 pm
A Day of Community, Camaraderie, and Fun!
Spend a hard-working, fun, and fulfilling day getting camp cleaned up and beautifying our grounds in preparation for summer at Volunteer Day at Surprise Lake Camp. It’s a mitzvah!
Projects include cleaning, painting, weeding, spreading wood chips, gardening, and a wide range of other projects designed to improve and beautify camp.
All you need to bring with you is a hat, a water bottle, sturdy shoes (no flip flops, please!), a strong work ethic, and your enthusiasm. This event happens RAIN OR SHINE, so please check the weather and dress accordingly. Snacks and a bagel lunch with sides will be provided. All who stay until at least 2pm will receive a Volunteer Day t-shirt.
Children are welcome! We only ask that they work on the same project as their parents. Teens (13+) can either stay with their families or help out with the Teenside projects. Camp will provide a letter of community service for anyone in need of this.
We hope you will join us! It will be fun to be together again during this beautiful time of year.
