Campbell County, WY has jobs!

The Casper Star Tribune.com recently featured an article titled, "RV Rally isn't much help." Susan Jerke, marketing director for the Campbell County Economic Development Corporation, came all the way to Quartzsite, Arizona during the big RV show in January to recruit RV workers. While disappointed in the results, she feels certain more RVers now are aware of opportunities in this area.

Jerke said local businesses are looking for people with a good work ethic, even if they commit to remain on the job for only a few months, and RVers appear to fill the bill. Housing in Gillette is in short supply, however there will be RV sites available at the fairgrounds. Upcoming projects will require some 2000 workers in 2009.

If you are looking for a temporary job, head to Gillette! Campbell County is one of the featured employers at Workamper.com. Jaimie

  • The quote in your story about Gillette WY ... "RV Rally isn't much help." by Susan Jerke, was no surprise to me.

    We aren't work campers at this time, but I remember seeing the Gillette WY booth at the Perry FMCA Convention in March. I believe a sign needed to be prominent in their booth. Three words were all that were needed to be on such a sign, "Work Campers Wanted". We just thought they were presenting their town as a tourist destination.

  • Interesting feedback. We were delayed in getting to Quartzsite so did not get to attend the big RV show. I was wondering what their booth was actually like. Jaimie
