The railroad station and many businesses along North Main St. are shown. There is even a kerosene lantern that used to light the old railroad crossing. Many thanks to Jeanne Adams, Suzanne Shorts, Tim McCann, John Hovey, and George Walker for their efforts in putting the display together. Volunteering at the Historical Society We are still looking for volunteers to help with our many tasks. During April and May we would especially welcome retired teachers and others who would like to guide the third graders through the museum.
Docents There are programs which require help from adults.
As a docent you would be trained by a staff member and called on occasionally to help with an educational program for adults or children. Our docents act as hosts on Sundays when the museum is open to the public, and as guides for the third grade school tours during May and June, both at the Museum and at Cheney Homestead. Greeting Guests Our lecture programs held at the Museum in the Spring and Fall require one or two volunteers to staff the check-in desk, sign up visitors and handle gift shop sales. Our Open House events in early December require greeters at both the Museum and Homestead. There are several events each year at which baked goods and refreshments are provided.
