What we found: Bombay Hook lists concrete recurring volunteer duties: visitor information, school and scout programs, interpretive walks, bird identification, trail and sign work, landscaping and visitor-center cleaning. The Friends association separately supports the refuge store. These are useful federal day-use hosting and caretaker categories in central Delaware. The official page directs readers to current Volunteer.gov assignments but does not offer RV hookups or staff housing. It should be presented as a volunteer program with a defined enquiry route, not a residential workcamper vacancy inferred from a generic job aggregator.
