Volunteers removing storm-damaged trees

from the Archives Building grounds

       

        All office and maintenance work at the Solanco Historical Society is accomplished by volunteers donating their time. There is no paid staff.   Each year, especially during the summer, volunteers are needed in the following areas:  

• As tour guides/docents at the historic Robert Fulton Birthplace.  Audio programs and written materials are available to assist tour guides in learning the facts presented in guided tours.  A recorded program is now available for presentation to visitors so a minimum of memorization is necessary.
• As gardeners in the Robert Fulton Birthplace kitchen garden with historically accurate plantings.
• As groundskeepers to remove storm-damaged branches and debris, to keep pathways smooth and clear and similar outdoor tasks.   
• As volunteer archivists on Wednesday mornings to scan documents and photographs to add to the Historical Society's collection.
