Volunteer Program Goals

The volunteer program seeks to aid in the accomplishment of the mission of the historical society with the following goals:

1. To provide volunteers who will enhance the work of the staff of the historical society by complementing, expanding, and supplementing the staff. (No volunteer job is ever designed to take the place of an employee’s job.)

2. To work with the staff in order to determine the needs of volunteer placement and to design volunteer jobs which will meet the existing, as well as the changing, programs of the historical society.

3. To help create and promote in the community an understanding of the museum and all its facets.

4. To meet the community’s needs for service, through addressing the individual’s needs for serving others, through programs with responsibility and challenge for those qualified, and through career exploration where this will serve the requirements of the historical society.
