Retreat Volunteer Day – January 20th-22nd, 2026

“The smallest act of service is greater than the grandest intention.” – Oscar Wilde

At Camp because I said I would, we believe in showing up — even when it’s hard work, even when the weather’s not perfect, and especially when the job list is long.

From Tuesday, January 20th, through Thursday, January 22nd, 2026, we’re inviting volunteers to lend a hand during three impactful days of service at camp. Whether you can give a few hours or all three days, your time and effort will make a real difference.


🛠️ What to Expect

Event support: Help with event setup, programming, meal assistance, and any additional tasks 


📋 Arrival Info

  • 🅿️ Check-in Location: Head to Parking Lot #1 Grand Hall

  • 👟 Dress Code: Be ready for anything — wear protective footwear, preferably winter boots if possible and weather-appropriate clothing

💪 Who Should Come?

Anyone with a heart to help 


❤️ Why It Matters

This camp is more than just cabins and trails. It’s where grieving families laugh again. Where tired teachers catch their breath. Where pain meets peace and turns into possibility. Every bench you build and bag you carry plays a part in that.
