The volunteers of the Oysterponds Historical Society are the heart of the Museum. Becoming an OHS volunteer is an excellent way to learn more about our local history and to contribute to the Society's mission to preserve and teach about the history of Orient and East Marion. If you would like to volunteer your time, the following opportunities are currently available:

Docent Museum Guides/Attendants – Docents and Exhibition Attendants are responsible for monitoring Museum visitors, answering general questions, keeping the gallery tidy, as well as

performing other as-needed tasks. Volunteers are needed during the summers months on Thursdays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 2pm-5pm.

Tuesday Crew – The Society's buildings and extensive grounds need constant attention. Volunteers are needed to help with minor maintenance and repairs to buildings, both outside and inside. The Tuesday Crew meets every week on Tuesdays from 9am-11am.

Children’s Education Assistants – Get involved in our OHS Education Committee. Volunteers will assist in the creation of educational programs and activities for school-age children.

Garden Volunteers – New! Are you a garden enthusiast? Our garden volunteers help with the watering, weeding, and general care of the beautiful OHS gardens. Flexible days/hours.

Special Projects Assistant
– Volunteers are needed to assist with general administrative tasks including mailings, filing, events, and other special projects. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet up with old friends and make new friends. Flexible hours, Monday through Friday, 9am - 5pm.
