What's Included

Overview

Camp Yavapines, located in Prescott, Arizona, has served children, youth, and adults since 1947. Camp Yavapines has a variety of accommodations from quaint cabins, to rustic bunk lodges, as well as RV and tent sites. The camp is nestled within the majestic pines of Thumb Butte, and adjacent to the Prescott National Forest. Camp meetings have been held here for decades, but the camp needs assistance to maintain their sprawling facilities. Volunteers will complete several renovation projects around camp including repairing roof shingles, painting the interiors and exteriors of several cabins, building and repairing picnic tables, and completing landscaping projects.
