Alaska State Parks

From their web page:

What is a Campground Host's Season?

The camping season in Alaska is generally from mid-May through mid-September. Some campgrounds have extended seasons and a couple are open year-round. Hosts are requested to volunteer 35 to 40 hours per week for at least four to six weeks. Hosts may stay the entire season and some areas may rotate hosts among campgrounds for a broader experience. Rangers will try to balance a host's schedule with visitor season demands. The minimum time commitment and length of season for a specific position is listed under the Season category with each position description.

Where Do Hosts Live?

Volunteer hosts live in their own RV, motorhome, or trailer, at a special camp site. Because campground hosts are the "ambassadors" for Alaska State Parks, their "residence" must be neat and well-maintained. Alaska State Park campgrounds are rustic, but clean and beautiful. Each campsite has a parking pad, a picnic table, and a firepit. Each campground has water, latrines, and refuse containers. Some host locations have access to telephone and electricity.
