Volunteer Opportunities
Volunteers help make history come alive by doing everything from greeting
visitors at the History Center or Mill City Museum, to helping individuals with genealogical
research in the library, or assisting families during special events at
the History Center, Mill City Museum and historic sites.
Currently, we are working from our waiting list. We expect to begin accepting new applications again in December. In the meantime, read below to learn about what volunteers do for the Society.
