No...not at all. To be very honest, what I observed was a group of so-called workampers who looked to be young kids, semi-homeless living in trashy trailers. The park was in major need of cleanup and organization. What I'm use to seeing is workampers who are seasoned campers, aware and eager to please park guests and certainly more mature then what I observed.
We want to be workampers in 4 years, so learning more now about what will take place then, is important.

Well, I think we fit your description. We are definitely in the minority as far as age goes. But, we enjoy it. We get to meet new people and we have made so many new friends. To be truthful, we generally can't wait for January to roll around when all of our friends start rolling in to the campground!
