Maintenance/Janitorial - Silver Lake (Mears), MI

Camp Ground Couple Position Maintaining:  Bathhouse/Restrooms, Outdoor Heated Swimming Pool & Laundry Room  (w/ 2 consecutive days off)Shifts Times:  (8:00 am - 3:30 pm)  &  (3:30 pm - 11:00 pm)  w/ 2 Consecutive Days Off per week

Bathhouse     While rotating shifts with a second couple, you would be cleaning and maintaining one bathhouse, swimming pool, and laundry room; which are all in one location.  The womens side of the bathhouse has 5 shower stalls and 6 toilet stalls;  the mens has 5 shower stalls and 5 toilet stalls & 2 urinals.  Cleaning the bathhouse would involve periodic checks during your shift and cleaning where and when necessary.  We have once a week 'super cleaning' day for a very thorough cleaning.

Swimming Pool     The pool measures 20' x 40' and has a half-bath within the pool area.  The morning shift's work would include rolling up the solar cover, cleaning & vacuuming before the pool opens at 10:00 am, periodic testing of pool chemicals; adding them when needed.  You are not to be life guards.  However, if you see something that conflicts with our rules, you are expected to address the issue.

Laundry Room      The laundry room consists of 3 washers and 4 dryers and a folding table.  You would be wiping down the machines of excess detergent, softener, dust, emptying the filters, and keeping the floor swept and clean.

Each couple is supplied with a golf cart.  It is your responsibility to keep it looking clean.  When driving around the park, we ask that you pick up any bagged leaves and grass clippings left at the road's edge by our seasonal campers.  You will dispose of them onto our compost pile.

Two-thirds of the park's campsites are seasonal sites with the majority of these campers use their own bathroom facilities.  The remaining 70 sites for overnight stays would be using the bathhouse.  A large number of overnight campers are repeat customers.  One of the main reasons for their return is due to how great the bathhouse & pool have always been kept.  Of course, they also very much appreciate how friendly and helpful the staff is, too.

Our slower times during the season are from early May thru mid-June and the latter part of August thru the end of September; with the exception of Memorial Day &  Labor Day weekends.
