Great Lakes Children Museum

There are a few time slots where we need volunteers to assist with activities and programming during the last week of December. There are 2 reason why we need a few more volunteers this year…we have scheduled special activities each day during the school break and in order for the museum to reduce expenses, each one of the administration staff had their work week reduced by one day. The last reason necessitates a few more volunteers.

Listed below are the days and times we need volunteers to assist with the activities:
