Tour guides are needed at the Vermont History Museum & Vermont State House
Dateline: February 4, 2013
Montpelier, Vt. ― If you would like to help Vermont students learn about Vermont history and government, consider becoming a volunteer Tour Guide at the Vermont History Museum or the Vermont State House in Montpelier. Tour guides at both locations lead Vermont students from across the state through the museum exhibits and the capitol building. No experience is necessary.
The Vermont Historical Society and the Vermont State House are offering an information session on Thursday, February 21 from 10:30 to 11:30 am at 109 State Street in Montpelier. You will be able to talk with current tour guides to find out how you can help share Vermont history and/or government with students at either location.
For more information, please call Victoria Hughes at (802) 828-1413 or Vivien Fritz at (802) 828-1411.
Barre, Vt. ― The Vermont Historical Society invites the public to join a small shipboard community of history-minded travelers to commemorate the 150th Anniversary of the Civil War, the epic conflict that gave America, as Abraham Lincoln stated, “a new birth of freedom.” From May 25 to June 4, 2013, a journey between Richmond and Savannah aboard the cruise ship Yorktown will feature an itinerary to cities and battlefields that resonate with all students of the Civil War.
