Learn about special volunteer opportunities at Volunteer Orientation Day on Monday, Jan. 26. The museum will hold a morning information session, from 10 a.m. to noon, and an evening session, from 7 to 9 p.m.
“The museum needs volunteers to give guided tours of the museum, the 1897 Poe House, and Arsenal Park,” said Leisa M. Brown, curator of education. Only two hours are needed at the 1897 Poe House, and Arsenal Park only takes one hour.
“We have set our goals high and hope to recruit 12 new tour guides,” said Brown. “Are you one of those 12 people who would like to play a vital role at the museum?”
As a volunteer, you will reap many awards from serving your community and sharing your knowledge, to meeting new people and being part of an organization that enhances Cumberland County’s quality of life. Additional benefits include field trips and social gatherings.
You can help the area’s rich history come to life for visitors at the Museum of the Cape Fear. To register for Volunteer Orientation Day, call the museum at (910) 486-1330.
