Camp Builders at Pine Hill Scout Reservation

Camp Builders Work Day 8:00-12:00pm

The Garden State Council is proud to launch Camp Builders, a handson volunteer initiative dedicated to preserving, improving, and enhancing the outdoor program facilities at Pine Hill Scout Reservation. Whether you’re a seasoned craftsman, a weekend DIYer, or simply someone who wants to support Scouting, there is a place for you on the team.

What Is Camp Builders?

Camp Builders is a recurring monthly service day where adult (18+)volunteers come together to tackle a variety of projects that keep Pine Hill safe, functional, and ready for adventure. Tasks may include:

- Trail clearing and campsite upkeep
- Painting, repairs, and general maintenance
- Conservation and outdoor improvement projects
- Facility upgrades and seasonal preparations
- Special project builds aligned with program needs

Each month will offer a combination of light, moderate, and skilled tasks—designed so any volunteer can contribute, regardless of experience.
