VOLUNTEER

Our volunteers keep our organization running strong!  They are invaluable to our efforts and have truly helped to make the Children's Museum what it is today.  In fact, from 2002 to 2005, nearly 100% of the efforts of the Children's Museum were volunteer driven.  Volunteering your time at the museum is both rewarding and fun! 

CMFDL recommends volunteers be 16 years of age; however, we will interview volunteer applicants starting at age 13.
