Established workplaceCurrent opening not confirmed
A standing programme or a past notice shows this place uses these workers. No current opening is confirmed.
What we found: An employer-authored caretaker specification hosted by the Harney County Chamber describes a remote Grant County youth camp. The caretaker maintains buildings, grounds, equipment and cabins, manages a generator schedule and helps the cook when required. The document was revised in February 2024 and uploaded in 2025; it is valuable recruitment evidence, not a 2026 vacancy. Its accommodation sentence appears to contain a typo, so confirm whether the cabin or trailer is rent-free and what cleaning deposit applies. This lead adds remote eastern Oregon beyond public campground programs.
Staffing evidence: A past notice names this place. Checked October 9, 2026.
