Update on Books and New Places to Review

We have a sort of update on the books we want to write and the new places we want to visit to write reviews. The state parks in Florida have some of the best places to workcamp. They have a solid program in place and very gracious and hardworking Volunteer Coordinators. With all the weird news and people taking pictures where they shouldn’t there have been problems. Some of that is false impressions by amateurs on social media. Some are even the people making a big mess when they come through the parks. Mostly, not being respectful of the environment and its residents. We have re-visited a couple of the parks closest to where we are currently living and working to get updated videos and pictures. We tried interviewing some of the workampers and park personnel but no go there. The last few places stated that we have to have permission from Tallahassee to move forward with our project.

Since they are in the majority of the places we want to include in our workbooks and our updated Campground Hosting book we thought it would be easier to start with them. Once approved by the Department of Environmental Protection (The overseer of our parks) the Federal, County, City, and Non-Profits would be a little easier to get. Anyhoo…I couldn’t find that information on the website so I called the main phone number. I was told I had to email the Marketing and Programming Department (they do not accept phone calls???) and they would send the necessary forms. I did that in June, no response. I called back the first of this month and it seems the whole division received a new email address. I emailed that one still no response.

Not to be deterred from my quest I will email them again from every single email address that I have until I get some kind of response. Since I am a former Volunteer Workamper and my daughter and mother are as well. Between us, we have logged over 2500 hours before we had to stop volunteering. Of course, the last place we volunteered at did a thorough background check with fingerprints and everything. I can get bonded if necessary. That is something I could do myself through a local agency. It would be a business write-off and perhaps I would get a better response rate.
