We are so excited to finally be opening the BRAND-NEW Historical Museum this month!😍 However, we need more volunteers to help staff it or we won't be able to share its treasures with everyone who wants to visit.😭

We need to fill several 3-hour shifts Wednesday through Saturday, simply greeting visitors and taking tickets. No history knowledge is necessary as this is a self-guided museum.

Please share with anyone who may have a few hours to spare or with students who are looking to fill their volunteer service hours requirement. Call 906-828-1822 for more info.
