We desparately need a driver or more for the Livermore HistoryMobile. Without someone to drive the HistoryMobile, the program cannot exist. We have docents for presentations which will last part of the day and you would not have to perform that duty. The only thing we need is for someone to pick up the HistoryMobile and drive it to a school around 8:30 in the morning and then pick it up at the school when we've finished. One of the docents will take you back home or to your car and take you back in the afternoon. Of course you are welcome to stay all day if you like,
The HistoryMobile is a 30 ft. motor home that has been renovated to be a museum on wheels. During the spring (April through May) we spend a day or two at each Elementary School in Livermore. Anyone with a regular driver's license can drive this vehicle. You do not need a special license, just the ability to drive and a desire to bring this wonderful opportunity to the school children of Livermore. We have 13 schools in Livermore which means a total of 15 days. You wouldn't need to drive every one of these days since we will have more than one driver. You could choose as little and 3 or 4 days out of all dates in April and May, so it not a huge time committment. Please call me to get more information - 925-443-3076. We'd love to have you on our team.

Mission Statement
The mission of the Livermore Heritage Guild is to ensure awareness and protection of Livermore's rich heritage through public advocacy and by collecting, preserving, interpreting, and sharing historic resources for the education and enjoyment of all. Our motto is " Saving Yesterday For Tomorrow" and our logo is a drawing of the historic Southern Pacific Railroad Depot.
Description
The Livermore Heritage Guild is Livermore's historical society. We maintain a collection of historic archives and artifacts, along with a newspaper index, oral histories, maps and many other resources for exploring Livermore's heritage.
In addition, we operate a history mobile to take history instruction to the schools, have restored three of Livermore's historic fire trucks, and operate two historic sites and a museum. Our headquarters is in the historic Carnegie Library building at 3rd and South J streets in downtown Livermore and includes a small museum as well as our research material and collection. One historic site is the Duarte Garage and Lincoln Highway Museum on Portola and North L Streets. We open the garage monthly for visitors as we continue restoration and exhibit work there. Our other site is the 5 acre Hagemann Ranch, listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
There is a wide range of projects going at any given time, please join us!
