Volunteering at CCHS

Thank you so much for your interest in volunteer opportunities at the Carver County Historical Society. We are very committed to sharing the museum with volunteers who want to help us with our mission “to collect, preserve, and interpret the history of Carver County.”

We consider our volunteers to be a major resource and we are happy that you are interested in sharing some of your time and talent with us. CCHS staff works with individuals to help find the volunteer placement that is right for them. Our goals are to ensure that volunteers look forward to coming to the museum and that they have fun while making significant contributions to our programs.

If you are an active volunteer at the Society, help keep our information current. Let us know about any changes of address, telephone number, e-mail, emergency contact or employer.
