Volunteering at the Buffalo Bill Historical Center

The Buffalo Bill Historical Center's success has largely been a result of the unstinting efforts of its volunteers. The Historical Center's volunteer army is 114 strong, and they collectively contributed over 8,000 hours in 2007!

VOLUNTEER APPLICATION

You can email your application to Chris Searles.

While the Historical Center does attempt to recognize volunteers through an annual banquet and benefits, all of the volunteers say they participate because of the personal satisfaction it delivers.

Volunteers have numerous opportunities to utilize their life and work skills at the Historical Center. Activities cover the entire spectrum of museum-related support functions. Some individuals enjoy being docents or leading children or family activities, and other dedicated volunteers deliver indispensable service behind the scenes. These hidden roles range from assisting in administrative operations to helping set up exhibitions.

Chris Searles would be glad to answer any of your questions. You may also reach her by phone @ 307.578.4089.
