Need High School, College, or University Credit? This is perfect for you! This opportunity is pretty open to any ideas and in any way you would like to donate your time. Whether it be helping on current projects or even starting your own. You can even be trained to do either of the opportunities we have listed on Volunteer Match or suggest a new opportunity with the curator specifically for you. We need help in all areas of the museum. Whether it be in the agricultural aspect surrounding the museum (raking leaves, planting, taking out weeds), or with the technological side of the museum (websites, Facebook, events, or updating outdated documents), or helping out with simple mechanical/creative work that we'd be more than happy to train you on. An example of mechanical or creative work would be helping sand historic military vehicles to get them ready for primer and paint or making new signs for the museum. The museum needs help in the office in particular. Those who are good with Microsoft Word and like typing, this is a great volunteer job for you! We constantly need our websites updated and official office documents up to date as well. These official documents include volunteer agreements, film agreements, museum property rules, court-ordered volunteer agreements, and etc. We just need someone to overlook existing documents to make sure there are no typos, they are written clearly, and up to date. We also need volunteers who are willing to help with grant writing to acquire donors to keep the museum alive and able to fund the projects we do. We have been a non-profit organization since 1965, so we need all the help we can get. The more volunteers we have, the more projects we will be able to start and complete. Although this is a lot of information, it gives you an idea of what our weekly volunteers do. Contact us and we will set up something for you to do at our unique place! We'd love to have you.

This volunteer opportunity does not have to be daily or weekly, it could be a monthly gig! The museum is looking for someone who can trim the trees that surround the museum and our vehicles. We have volunteers that can do the clean up part, we just need someone who is skilled or enjoys trimming trees on their free time! We need this done because we have two large broken branches on the property and we would like to ensure safety of our guests and volunteers. It also helps prevent natural disasters such as fires reaching into the property. We do have the equipment needed to do the job! We have electric chainsaws, hydraulic clippers, and a small gas chipper. We hope we hear from you and that you would love to donate your time to a non-profit museum that educates our community in American Military History.

Our museum is open on Fri-Sun from 10:00am to 4:30pm. We need a museum docent for Friday-Saturdays or Sundays . We could definitely use a hand in educating visitors from our community and young school groups that mainly come in on Fridays. Docent shifts can range from 9am to 1pm or 12:30pm to 4:30pm. Before opening, we do our safety checks and make sure the museum is ready to be opened. We set up small displays and any other signs we need for that day. At the end of the day, we help with cleaning up the museum. If you thoroughly love history and want to help teach the community of our nation's past and present mechanics, this is the museum for you. And if you are a veteran of the United States military we'd love to have you as well! If you can help keep military history alive, come join us! We'd love to have you. No experience needed. Just a love for history, mechanics, or an interest in updating your resume! Help us preserve our steel soldiers!
