We are looking forward to knocking off several tasks on the to-do list this coming weekend, April 10-11! While we hope to not have work to do on Sunday, folks are welcome to sleep at camp on Saturday night.

 Because we want to feed volunteers, we do need to plan ahead for meals. If you did not register on the sign-up button that was here, please contact the office so we can plan accordingly for food and sleeping arrangements. Please either email info@driftcreek.org OR call 541-921-5866.

If you registered and plan to attend, please remember to bring your sleeping bag, pillow, etc. If you have work gloves go ahead and bring them! There will be wood to process, cabins to mop, windows to wash, ferns and bushes to trim in front of the lodge, weeding in the Native Garden, deep cleaning in the lodge, cleaning kitchen cabinets, and more! 

We are so grateful for your helping hands! 

April 10-12, 2026

Winter can sometimes be unkind at DCC. The heavy winds and rain in December were no exception! While there were several trees that could not withstand the high winds and saturated ground, thankfully, none fell on buildings and no one was hurt! There was, however, some damage on the gutter on the front of the lodge and more on the corner of the Activity Center. A giant Sitka also fell on the Octoball ring, crushing much of it. We are hoping for helping hands to address these projects as well as general prep for the summer season. We need volunteers to deep-clean the lodge, wash windows, tidy the cabins, spruce up the kitchen, rake molehills, work on trails and oil the benches around the fire-ring. Volunteers with a variety of skill levels are invited to pitch in. The spring season will be packed with both weekday and weekend usage making it difficult for the small camp staff to be able to address these needs.

Volunteers are welcome to arrive on Friday, April 10. DCC will provide meals for volunteers beginning with lunch on Friday through breakfast on Sunday. Volunteers are invited to come for the day or the weekend, whatever works best for you! If you opt for spending the night, remember to bring bedding or a sleeping bag.
