Health and Fitness Week
Work Exchange
Thanks for expressing your interest in our "Health and Fitness Week" Work/Exchange (W/E) program. The number of people who wish to attend the Health and Fitness Week is steadily growing. I appreciate the support each of you has given FoodnSport surrounding this event.
Many people ask if there is a way that they can attend for a reduced rate. We understand the issues and appreciate the desire. So we provide for this need by offering W/E. Essentially, our W/E program functions like this:
Health and Fitness Week is a 108 hour event. We ask for six hours of work each day, which is awarded by credit hours for shifts. We strive to allow participants to attend as much of the event as they desire, excluding the 6 hours of assistance they provide. In other words, W/E participants will arrive one day early and leave one day later. W/E participants will work approximately one third of that time and be free to participate fully in camp activities for the remainder of the time.
W/E participants will mainly provide kitchen help, including but not limited to: food prep, serving, clearing meals, clean up, food storage, and maintenance of kitchen and food quality. There may be other domestic and logistic duties requested on occasion.
W/E participants will learn valuable skills while providing essential assistance.
Camp starts at 6am most mornings, and ends at 9pm. Participants will be able, to some degree, to choose the hours of their work so as to best take part in the camp activities or classes of their preference.
For instance, in order to attend all fitness classes and all lectures, someone might prefer to work as a server during meals. W/E participants who wish to attend the "theory" classes, that is, the lectures, more than the fitness classes, would work before meals, doing prep. W/E participants wishing to focus on the practical more than the theory could work the shift immediately following mealtimes.
There is flexibility in the scheduling. The number of W/E participants will be primarily determined by the number of campers. Most years we are looking for 6 W/E participants to help primarily with kitchen related duties.
The cost of Work Exchange is $1999.00. In addition to the discounted rate we offer $500 off the cost of camp to W/E participants for every full paying camper that they "send" to camp.

I have now attended H&F Week for the last 2 years for work exchange. I am hooked!!! I couldn't have predicted how much fun I would have, how much I would learn and how many intelligent and awesome people I would meet. Attending Health and Fitness Week significantly changed my life more than words can really express. Not only did I have the opportunity to learn how to create delicious raw meals, but I also was able to attend some of the lectures and fitness classes. It was like the ultimate health package, and it was just what I needed to take my knowledge and health to the next level.
If anyone is interested in fully realizing their potential in raw fitness, raw knowledge, raw food with the support of raw friends......this is the event to attend. I can't recommend it highly enough. But don't take my word for it, come experience it for yourself.
