As a volunteer organization we are always in need of volunteers who will help us to carry out our mission in preserving the region's history. No experience is necessary - we will be glad to show you what to do and you will have a good time doing it. Many of our volunteers have been with us for years and have enjoyed the fellowship of like-minded members. We also need supplies that help our organization to service members, researchers, and visitors. Here is our current wish list if you would like to make a donation for 2008. (The dollar amount is the cost if we buy the item.)
