Well, one nice way to act superior would be to become an assitant at the Old Lighthouse museum. One of Stonington Borough's treasures, the Old Lighthouse Museum, is looking for volunteers to help at the front desk with tickets and purchases of lighthouse memorabilia. You can tell people about the Lighthouse and about the Borough and make them feel appropriately jealous that you live in such agreeable surroundings. At least 200 people take advantage of High Hopes riding therapy. The riding program runs 6 days a week in sessions of up to 10 weeks.
Volunteers can aid the riders, care for the horses, work on special events or assist in the office.
The Florence Griswold Museum in Old Lyme CT is looking for volunteers to work as docents and tour guides to share the special attributes of the museum with visitors from around the country and the world. Candidates for these positions should be outgoing and interested in history and art. A 12-week docent training program is being offered at the Museum beginning Monday 5 March through Monday 21 May 2001, from 9.30 am to noon. The Stonington COMO is looking for volunteers with such various skills as flower arranging, joke telling, bridge playing and so forth. Let them know what you can do and how you can help others.
