Volunteer

Volunteers really make things happen here at the Hayward Area Historical Society! Volunteers help with all aspects of the organization: leading tours for schoolchildren and adults, acting as docents at the museum and historic properties, helping with programs and events, staffing tables for community outreach, cataloging documents and artifacts, and working at the front desk. We would love to have you on board!
