Docents are needed at the museum

It is hard for me to believe; however, in August I will have been working at the museum for 7 years. I certainly do not know where that time went.
 
One of the first things I did as a new employee was to try and recruit more docents. Well, I’m in same fix now as I was then. We are in desperate need of more docents at both The Farmstead and The Depot. We especially need some (younger) men and I use that term loosely. Right now the big rush for school tours is over; however, this summer we hope to have many visitors. Large groups usually call ahead to make plans which gives us an opportunity to have plenty of help on hand.
 
Some of our long-time docents are not in the best of health and can no longer do the walking, etc. required. I would like to have four or five people who could step up to the plate when we need extra help. It’s really a lot of fun and you get to meet people from everywhere. Won’t you give me a call at 903-855-7571 or e-mail me at campcountymuseum@aol.com. I would love to hear from you.
 
In the meantime, I hope everyone has a great summer. If you have never been to the museum (The Farmstead and The Depot) please drop by. We have a fabulous museum in our little town and I’m proud to be a part of it.
