Pre-planned mini-work parties (in conjunction with the camp’s needs) will be held from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM on various Saturdays throughout the year; these workdays are scheduled so as not to conflict with other activities at camp where volunteers are needed. The day starts with coffee “and” at 8:45 AM and lunch will be provided. We will tackle jobs large and small throughout the camp to assure an awesome experience for any Scouts or Scouters attending Camp Workcoeman this year and for years to come!
If you plan on attending, please register online or email Daron Colgan ([email protected]) by the Wednesday before the work day to let him know you’re coming; he’ll let you know the projects to be addressed and any special attire or equipment needs.

Camp Workcoeman is located in the hills of northwest Connecticut in scenic New Hartford and Barkhamsted. The camp consists of approximately 427 acres on the shore of beautiful West Hill Pond, possibly the cleanest in Connecticut.
Established in 1924, it is one of the oldest continuously operated Scout camps in the country. For 102 years, thousands of Scouts and Scouters have had unforgettable Scouting experiences at Camp Workcoeman. This fine tradition of Scouting continues today.
