Program Details

Volunteers have a pretty simple job and the more volunteers we have the easier the jobs are and the quicker you can get things finished and devote to other projects or spend time exploring Antigua.


Activities & Shift

The AM shift begins at 6am-8am(1person) and the Afternoon shift is from 12-230pm-230.(3people)
And the evening shift is from 4-630pm(1person)
AM shift loans out gear and does very light cleaning. The PM shift received the tour once they return and have a bit more cleaning to do.
The evening shift prepares the gear and gear room and also passes out gear to travelers after the meeting.
We are looking for the type of volunteers that also will take initiative. The accommodations could use some improvements and deep cleanings occasionally and we would like volunteers that are willing to get creative with the space to improve it.
