Special Projects
Volunteers are often required on an as-needed basis for a variety of special projects, such as the Museum Shop support when replenishing inventory, bulk-mailing assistance, exhibit construction and data entry. All Museum departments require occasional assistance with a variety of tasks.

General Office Assistance
Volunteers answer telephones, count Museum visitors, file correspondence, and answer general inquiries.

Data Entry

Archives
Volunteers are needed to archive all past newsletters. The project could be done from home provided the volunteer had appropriate computer knowledge and the appropriate software.  The volunteer would meet with the staff to determine the project format and the necessary information to be included.  This would be a great project for those interested in learning more about the history of the Museum and the natural world.
