Vanholio's been tappin' this resource for months. It's a good gig for rubber tramps. Mind you, it ain't been enough to save. But it's been coverin' my expenses. Been makin' over $500 a month as a park host – tax free! – plus other benefits good as cash.
If you're thinkin' about workin' for better pay with a concessionaire, these volunteer positions is good experience. It ain't just camp host and park host jobs neither. You can do landscaping, trail maintenance, tree planting, visitor info booths – all kinds a shit.
Most a the volunteer positions just give ya an RV spot, true. Worth it if ya need hookups, but useless for true van life. But the payin' ones is hidden around Volunteer.gov. LOOK! Check state sites, too.
I done wrote up all the details in an article on Gohobo.com. Check it out.
Hey, Beer Vanholio! He works hard on this blog.

Is there any talk about if or how things might change under the current administration?
ReplyDeleteNo such talk. If anything, it's boom time for volunteers. The federal hiring freeze and slashed budgets has made the services more dependent on volunteers. They're using them and temp hires to keep things going.
DeleteIt's just like corporate downsizing bullshit. Get in temps and contractors to keep down payin' real salaries and benefits.
