Volunteers are the heart of The Heritage Center
Learn How You Can Help Preserve Our History!
Opportunities exist for individuals to join The Heritage Center all-volunteer staff and assist us in preserving our regional heritage for future generations. Nothing is needed other than an interest in history and a willingness to preserve our local historical records.
​
Volunteers choose their own hours. Some devote many hours per week while others may come in a once or twice a month.
​
Training is provided and we try to match volunteer’s interests with The Heritage Center’s needs. In addition to the day to day activities, there are occasional field trips to historic sites.
