Work Kamper is a term used to describe volunteers who live in their RVs and move from spot to spot every four to six months in order to see and experience more of the country. What is great about the Work Camper philosophy is everyone benefits. The Work Campers exchange 15–20hrs work of work a week for an RV hookup site. Since the typical monthly hookup rate is around $500 - 600, these people are able to share their energy, knowledge, and desire to give something back while keeping their cost of living to a minimum.

 

The airport is currently cared for and owned by a husband (Rich) and wife (Ginger) that live on the airport and have made a commitment to keeping vintage airplanes and their environment (grass runways) alive for the next generation to enjoy. It is a little different from a lot of airports in that it is certified by the FAA as part of the national transportation system but owned by individuals instead of a municipality. Therefore, we receive no funding from outside sources (except occasional donations from those that frequent the airport). We spend more than ½ of our income to keep it up and open up our large yard to the public because we love aviation! Aviation is pretty much our life! That’s also why it is important to us that the work kamper fit is good! We call everyone that visits and/or participates in its operation our airport family. Therefore, we are looking for a work kamper that at least has an interest in flying, enjoys an active outdoor lifestyle, wants to be involved with the airport and its family of friends, and is a good neighbor.
