Join us for All-American Day! This fun family event features a historically accurate 19 th century "Base Ball" game featuring Diamond State Base Ball Club. Come early for "batting practice" and to try out some other traditional 19 th -century games, such as hoop-and-stick and tug of war. "All-American" food will be available for purchase. Be sure to bring your own seating- this game is very informal. This is a "Let’s Move" event.
. Greet guests as they enter the area and give them any information they may need. Point them in the direction of the food, games, restrooms, etc. Be friendly and welcoming.
Help guests with fun games from the 1800s such as bean bag toss, ring toss, hoops and graces, and others.
Qualifications: Great customer service needed. Outgoing, friendly and able to interact with guests. Not afraid to keep things organized in a positive way. Age 18 years or older.

Mission Statement
Hagley Museum and Library collects, preserves, and interprets the unfolding history of American enterprise. Hagley is located on 235 acres by the Brandywine River in Wilmington, Delaware.
Description
Located on 235 acres along the banks of the Brandywine River in Wilmington, Delaware, Hagley is the site of the gunpowder works founded by E. I. du Pont in 1802. This example of early American industry includes restored mills, a workers' community, and the ancestral home and gardens of the du Pont family.
Hagley's library furthers the study of business and technology in America, especially the Middle Atlantic region. The collections include individuals' papers and companies' records ranging from eighteenth-century merchants to modern telecommunications and illustrate the impact of the business system on society.
The Center for the History of Business, Technology, and Society organizes and administers the Hagley Museum and Library's interaction with the world of scholarship. It brings attention to Hagley's research collections and generates intellectual dialogue at Hagley.
