Approximately 200,000 visitors annually come to the museum including thousands of school children, families, and other organized groups seeking to learn and understand more about their heritage. Volunteer tour guides and interpreters have contributed hundreds of hours in making these visits enjoyable and stimulating. Activities such as the Tea in Time, Candlelight Stroll, the frequent demonstrations by the Gun Detachment and other similar events have contributed to a greater awareness of Field Artillery and Fort Sill history. The museum holds monthly Volunteer Training Sessions , usually the last Tuesday of each month, for all current and potential volunteers. Topics include the histories of Fort Sill, Native Americans, Field Artillery, and a wide range of other relevant subjects.
Volunteers are an essential part of the museum operation.
There is always a need for tour guides, for both the old post quadrangle tours and the children's museum, as well as for volunteers with special skills, such as carpentry, painting, sewing, architecture, photography, and numerous other areas.
