The Museum could not serve this community without the support of dedicated volunteers. From teens working towards National Honor Society requirements, to parents hoping to give to their child’s favorite destination, to Seniors with decades of talent and knowledge they are eager to share, the Boonshoft’s volunteer program is designed to match every skill and desire in the appropriate capacity.
Volunteer Opportunities at the Boonshoft Museum and SunWatch
The Boonshoft Museum of Discovery and SunWatch Indian Village/Archaeological Park are committed to being the premier place in the region for people to explore the many wonders of the world. Our volunteers are committed to excellence! Meet new people, enjoy the surroundings, be a leader and have fun!
We do not require you to volunteer a set number of hours each month, but do like to set up a rotating schedule that fits your needs and those of the Museum. There is a required volunteer orientation for all new volunteers that will take about two hours. We review Society policies and safety policies and tour the Museum and meet staff members. For more information, please call (937) 275-7431, ext. 111 or e-mail
