John Mahin – Fernan Rod and Gun Club

If you have ever dreamed of Workamping in a beautiful outdoor setting with mountains, lakes and unlimited recreation nearby, today’s episode might be exactly what you are looking for.

Today, I am talking with John Mahin, with the Fernan Rod and Gun Club in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. It is a nonprofit shooting range located just minutes from the downtown district, but surrounded by nature.

This opportunity is a little different from many traditional Workamping jobs. There is no long list of required hours and no standing behind a counter all day.

Instead, this role focuses on maintaining a welcoming environment, keeping an eye on safety and simply being a friendly presence at the range.

In this episode, John explains what makes this position appealing for the right person, the kind of responsibilities involved and why this could be a perfect fit for someone who enjoys the outdoors and is seeking a relaxed Workamping lifestyle.

The position comes with a free full-hookup RV site and plenty of free time to explore the area.

Rather than working a strict schedule, Workampers at the club have light responsibilities, such as keeping the facility clean, assisting during public events and helping to maintain a safe environment.

The role mostly involves maintaining a presence at the shooting range and assisting members.

This is a volunteer position, but the free RV site is a real plus in a region where campsites can be expensive.

It is an ideal opportunity for individuals or couples who are comfortable around firearms, enjoy meeting people and appreciate outdoor recreation.

John emphasized that the best candidates are responsible, personable and always aware of their surroundings, especially since safety is a top priority at the range.

If this sounds like a good fit for you, you can learn more by visiting the Fernan Rod and Gun Club’s website at FRGC.org, or apply by emailing John directly at [e-mail].
