            <P CLASS="copy">Far Horizons is sustained through the donated labor

              of our presenters and volunteer camp staff, as well as the love

              and financial support of our devoted members.<BR>

              <IMG SRC="images/pix_clear.gif" WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="5"> There are

              many of us who have been deeply and positively affected by the time

              we have spent as staff members at Far Horizons. This may be the

              summer for you to consider such a position for yourself. <BR>

              <IMG SRC="images/pix_clear.gif" WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="5"> Becoming

              a member of fellowship staff, or joining in one of our opening or

              closing work parties entitles you to room and board at Far Horizons,

              without cost. If you don't have the time to do more than attend

              the program of your choice, but you would like to reduce your overall

              costs by 50%, consider requesting a position as program staff.</P>

            <P CLASS="copy"><B>Fellowship Staff</B>: If you would like to pursue

              a deeper connection to Far Horizons, and are 18 or older, consider

              applying for a fellowship staff position. They require a minimum

              commitment of one month for duties such as cooking, raking/wood

              gathering, maintenance, cleaning, or office work for 6 hours a day,

              with one full day off each week in return for food, housing, and

              everlasting gratitude. We schedule fellowship staff work to permit

              attendance at the programs whenever possible. All program, food,

              and lodging fees are waived! If you want to live in a community

              dedicated to an examined way of life, please contact Leah Lambros at
