Volunteer Opportunities - Glendo

Volunteer Opportunities 

Glendo State Park is a great place to spend your time volunteering during the summer months. Glendo is one of the largest and busiest state parks in Wyoming with over 550 designated campsites throughout the park. Glendo is best known for the amazing walleye fishing, recreational boating opportunities, 45+ miles of mountain bike trails, and excellent campgrounds.

 

Camp Hosting

The main need for volunteers at Glendo State Park is as camp hosts. There are four camp host assignments available from May through September (dates are flexible). Camp hosting site locations are described in greater detail below.

Two Moon Campground

The camp host site in Two Moon Campground has a cement pad with water, electricity, and shade provided by the pine trees. 

Two Moon is the largest and most popular campground at Glendo State Park. The campground is located in a pine forest and overlooks the lake. Although there is no direct water access, there are boat ramps at the Marina and Whiskey Gulch nearby. Two Moon Campground has a playground, mountain bike trails, a mountain bike pump track, two group picnic shelters, and a few campsites with electricity.

The camp host in Two Moon primarily responsible for the Two Moon Campground.

Sandy Beach Campground

The camp host site at Sandy Beach has a cement pad with water, electricity, and a metal shade shelter that covers the picnic table. This site is located in an open area with little to no shade available.

The Sandy Beach Campground is known for amazing beaches that stretch along the edge of the cottonwood trees. It is a very popular campground in July and August. All electrical sites are reservation-only, and the remainder of the campground is made up of first-come, first-served and reserved sites. The majority of the first-come-first-serve campsites are shaded by cottonwood trees near the beach.

The camp host at Sandy Beach is responsible for Dune, Willow, Cottonwood, Indian Point, and Broken Arrow Campgrounds; however, the majority of their time is spent in the Dune, Willow, and Cottonwood Campgrounds close to the beach.

Bennett Hill Campground

The camp host site at Bennett Hill was built in 2017 and has a cement pad with water, electricity, and a metal shade shelter that covers the picnic table.

The Bennett Hill Campground was expanded in 2017 to provide additional campsites, including several group camping sites, near the Bennett Hill boat ramp and fish cleaning station. Bennett Hill is very popular May through mid-July with walleye fisherman. The boat ramp at this campground will become unusable during mid-summer as the water level of the reservoir begins to drop.

The camp host at Bennett Hill is primarily responsible for Bennett Hill Campground (44 campsites); however, they will also assist with the general upkeep of all the other campsites along Lakeshore Drive including Lakeshore, Waters Point, Red Hills, Reno Cove, Soldier Rock, Custer Cove, Colter Bay, and Gravel Point.

Whiskey Gulch Campground

The camp host site at Whiskey Gulch was built in 2017. This site has a cement pad with water, electricity, a metal shade shelter that covers a picnic table, and some medium-sized pine trees that provide shade. 

This assignment will be responsible for the Shelter Point, Sagebrush, Whiskey Gulch, and Mule Hill Campgrounds. These campgrounds are very popular being that the boat ramp at Whiskey Gulch has easy-access for fisherman and recreational boaters.
