State Parks need hosts

The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission is seeking volunteers to serve as hosts at state parks throughout Washington state.

A typical host assignment is 30 days, but may be extended up to 90 days at the park manager’s discretion.

Park hosts are needed throughout the year and are expected to provide their own RV and camping equipment.

For a list of volunteer and host openings, visit www.parks.wa.gov/volunteers or stop by the State Parks booth though May 6 at the Puyallup Fair and Events Center in Puyallup.

Those interested in hosting may contact Cindy.Jorgenson@parks.wa.gov or call 360-902-8612 or Laney.McIntyre@parks.wa.gov or call 360-902-8617.
