The excavation will be the fourth held at the Wayah District's Appletree Campground. Last season, more than 100 volunteers came from across the country and as far away as New Zealand to take part in this historical adventure. Many find that the digging is hard work, but the joy of discovery and the knowledge gained is worth all the effort. Volunteers must be 18 years old or 12 to 17 and accompanied by an adult. Applicants must work a minimum of 3 days.
Camping is available at the site, which includes water, showers and toilets.
