Would you like to be part of our organization? We are always looking for more people to help us fulfill our mission by volunteering during open hours and behind the scenes. Whether you are interested in providing tours of the exhibits or organizing and cataloging our historic collections, we would love for you to be part of a wonderfully dedicated and generous group of people. Our volunteers are veterans and civilians alike and range from teenagers to seniors. Your time, assistance, and valued experience will go a long way in enabling the museum to carry out its mission “to preserve the memories of America’s military history, strengthen the bonds to the community by facilitating the stories of veterans as supported by displays and artifacts for the benefit and education of generations to come.”
Help us teach future generations about the stories of service and valor from veterans of all branches and conflicts going back to the Civil War.
