Dozens of local residents donate time and resources to help the Society accomplish its mission. They help at special events, provide tours of the museums, work as gardeners and carpenters, or in the office, cataloging artifacts and collections, scanning in old photographs and doing everything else all that is needed to keep us running.
Jan Scott, Ross Kongable and Gus Berger spend the afternoon
cataloging Victorian Shoes.
The Society always welcomes new members with an interest in local history, who would like to share their special skills and a little of their
free time. We need volunteers on weekdays and on
weekends, so any schedule will work!
The following are some of the areas in which we need
volunteer assistance:
