The campground is across I-40 from Ridgecrest and is mainly for use by volunteers so it is not on the website. Has full hookups and concrete pads. If you are interested in volunteering at Ridgecrest and/or joining CampersOnMission, you would be welcome to camp.

Gerrald Branton said:At Ridgecrest we have helped with renovations to the buildings such as removing old patio type cover over playground area, sheetrock, painting, built wall in shop area, landscaping, clean up debris from storm damage. Just about anything that needs doing we can be called on to do. And as for age, I'm one of the youngest at 61, many are in 70's and even 80's. There's wide enough range of work, we'll fine something. Our chaplain, Melvin Thompson, uses a power chair and he finds something to do. Steve and Hugh have tool trailers , I just have a tool box with simple hand tools. We get the jobs done. Come join us. I can have the secretary send the info about our Spring Rally if you would like. Join us for that and see if you like it.
