Membership

Membership in the Society includes a suscription to the monthly Newsletter, an annual membership directory, access to the Society's archives, and invitations to Society special events

Greeters/Docents - Our museum is open noon to 4 pm daily from Memorial Day through Labor Day and on weekends in September and October. Greeters are needed to welcome visitors, answer questions and sell items in the gift shop. Training is provided. The Society also offers walking tours of downtown Saugatuck. If you are outgoing and enjoy meeting people from all over the world then you will enjoy volunteering here.

Exhibits - The Museum has received many awards for its annual highly popular exhibit reflecting area history topics. Are you a person with experience in graphic design, photography, writing and editing who would enjoy working on exhibits? Help is always needed in this category.

Hospitality - The Society holds their monthly membership meetings on the second Wednesday of the month. After the meeting, treats are served. Hostesses are needed each month.

Fundraising - If you have had experience, with fundraising for a non-profit organization we could sure use your expertise. We are in the process of acquiring our historic School House as a new home for the Society and we need lots of help in this area. The Society is also involved in several large annual fund-raisers, which are fun as well as educational. Look for more details about these on the web site.

Newsletter and Media - The Society puts out a monthly newsletter for its members and generates many news items for area publications. - Help is desperately needed in this area. Experience is nice but not necessary; however attention to deadlines is a must.
