 **Membership/Volunteer Opportunities
There are opportunities of all kinds for volunteers to share their skills or learn new skills, while working with others. People from the local area as well as those living miles and states away make up our members. This page is a place for members/volunteers to check and find out special projects, special needs, and what you can do to help. Beginning mid May, Saturdays are work days on the grounds.  Depending on the weather, you will usually find some folks around tending to a variety of things. There are times when a "crew" is needed for things like shingling a roof, setting a locomotive turntable, sealing holes in steel buildings, painting, levelling concrete, etc.  Cutting and trimming grass is very time consuming as is picking up trash.  Maybe you are able to come the afternoon of the day before the show to sit and wrap silverware or dust. The week of the show is a busy one when the buildings that have been packed with tractors and other storage items are accessible and ready for cleaning and setup. Little jobs and big jobs done by all of us are what makes the show go on!
