Friday Greeters for the Festival of Trees
12/6, 12/13, 12/20, 12/27
Shifts: 10am-1pm, 1pm-4pm

Spread festive cheer by welcoming visitors to the Festival of Trees! Greeters will welcome people as they enter the museum, offer basic guidance, and hand out activity sheets.

Comfy chair provided! You are welcome to bring a book, knitting project, or other simple activity to fill time between guests. You can also invite a friend or loved one to volunteer with you.

This volunteer opportunity would also be wonderful for local groups who want to complete volunteer hours. WCHS is testing out "sponsored" volunteer days - we will happily promote your community organization or local group in exchange for volunteer hours. Email our volunteer coordinator with any questions - outreach@wrighthistory.org

What is the Festival of Trees?
The Festival of Trees is an annual holiday event hosted by the Wright County Historical Society. Dozens of trees are decorated by local organizations, community members, and staff and displayed in exhibit galleries. We receive hundreds of visitors over the course of the month and need your help in making those visitors feel welcome!

Mission Statement

The Wright County Historical Society (WCHS) is a public 501(c) non-profit organization whose mission is to collect, preserve and share our history through the location, discovery, collection and preservation of historical artifacts and records.

It consists of nearly 8000 sq ft of gallery space, a genealogical research library, and historic buildings both on our grounds and the county fairgrounds. WCHS also provides many presentations, events, and lecture opportunities, including our famous History of Tractors series, an indoor Festival of Trees and much, much more.
