Volunteers run the Shafer Museum! All year 'round, there's lots to be done, indoors & out. There's something for every personality!

Current opportunities:

Facilities & Historic Preservation "Rusty Metal" Gang 

Learn the facilities needs, get hands-on with the buildings, put up exhibit signs, fix-up...doing all sorts of building, tinkering, and working on artifacts, displays, rehabilitating the historic buildings. If you have skills you can teach others, all the better! We're especially hoping for someone with construction, engineering, and/or handy-person skills.
