Volunteers who learn their local history work as tour guides for educational programs, update the Web site and answer research requests received via the Web. There's a lot to do and volunteers can perform a variety of tasks suited to their interests. Volunteers help create newspaper indexes and move into the future by helping to build an online catalog. Volunteers assist in developing an electronic list of items owned by the society and transcribe oral histories. Everybody's welcome, especially library or archival studies students.
Volunteers help conduct school programs, work in the museum, catalog and file.

The group has completed the exterior restoration of the working lighthouse that guards the entrance to Huntington Harbor. Now, it is preparing to turn the gutted interior back into a keeper's quarters.
