Here is a quote from one of past summer volunteers:

"I was given the opportunity to volunteer at the Zajac Ranch for 2 weeks. I would like to express to you my gratitude
for this tremendous privilege. Working with children with physical and mental disabilities and seeing what each child has to go through, such as having to take different medications several times a day, while still having enough energy to participate and enjoy all of the camp activities, was a character-building experience for me." - John

Summer Camp Volunteers

The Zajac Ranch for Children always accepts the donation of time and enthusiasm! Every summer many volunteers and counselors come to the Ranch to create a magical, fun experience for our campers. Volunteers play a major role in ensuring the success of the Zajac Ranch and providing camping opportunities for children with disabilities. Our volunteers assist in running programs and interacting with the children to assist our Counselors.

If you are able to comit to at least one camp session (3 - 7 days), you can volunteer as a Camp Counselor or Activity Specialist. Volunteers must arrive at the Zajac Ranch for Children at 7:00 pm the evening before the camp session starts for training. To download our 2011 Summer Volunteer Application form click here.
