The profits from the shop support the operations of the museum.
Volunteers assist the gift shop manager with selling merchandise.
They also greet visitors and answer general questions about the museum and historical park. We ask our gift shop volunteers to work a total of two half days per month for a total of 8 hours of service per month. We provide 2 free hours of training, so that all volunteers will feel confident about their work. All museum volunteers are invited to join the Museum Guild. The group hosts a planned program at each of its monthly meetings.
