Creek Interpretive Center Volunteer Opportunities

- Are you fond of scrap booking? Interested
in research and archives? Do you embrace bookkeeping,
detail work and record keeping? Are you intrigued
with history and capturing information for generations to
come? We need an individual who will serve as registrar
for the Clear Creek Interpretive Center. Work at your
own pace - initially more time may be involved setting up
files and catching up with objects we have acquired, later
maintaining and adding to records will require less time.
Never been a registrar? No problem we have plenty
of knowledge, info, forms, resources for this job!
Just no time!
Docent
- Do you have an interest in history, wildlife habitat
and the environment? Do you enjoy families and children?
Do you enjoy visiting with people, answering questions?
Do you feel you have a knack for hospitality? We need
volunteers to staff the interpretive center once a month
on a Saturday afternoon, arriving before public hours, opening
and preparing the building and closing back up again.
Researcher
- Do you have an interest in either history, culture, native
or natural heritage, wildlife habitat and/or environmental/ecosystem
studies? Do you enjoy investigation, research expanding
your knowledge base? Do you have world wide web internet
experience and know your way around a library? Do
you get a thrill out of musty archives, yellowing newspapers
and photos of places/people long gone? We need your
help researching content for interpretive center exhibits
and displays and for tacking down needed photos, artifacts
and reproductions for our displays.
