• Help as a Summer Camp Nurse

    Camp Willow Run has a need for a camp nurse (RN) during several sessions this summer.  CWR offers a camper registration fee credit in return for one week of service as a camp nurse/healthcare person. The camp nurse helps with the administration of camper medications, provides care for minor injuries and illnesses, and is on-call to assist in the event of an emergency. Please call Luke at 252.586.4665 if you are interested in serving or would like more details.
