I have relatives that live in Alaska, so I have been there a few times. It is a great place to visit as long as you go in the summer ;) .

Where is Ninilchik in Alaska?

Ninilchik is about 4 hours south of Anchorage, on the Kenai Peninusla, halfway between Soldotna and Homer.

While we were there, we repaired houses.

On my crews project, we insulated pipes, put insulation and skirting up around the cabin, and hung sheetrock inside. We also painted the t1-11 we put up around the house.

This organization Group Workcamps Foundation hosts these workcamps all over the United States, I have been to five in total now. You go there with your youthgroup, and the camp splits you up into different crews. You are usually not with anyone from your youth group, its an awesome way to meet people from all over the U.S.
