Whatever the Community Event is, the Marathon County Historical Society is there. Our outreach to educate people on the importance of our past goes beyond our exhibits and the Yawkey House Museum. We attend many events like Harvest Fest, Winter Fest, Children's Fest, YMCA Healthy Kids Day, NTC STEM Event, Pride Fest, Dairy Breakfast, WI Valley Fair Booth, Ginseng Festival, World Culture Day and much more. What will this volunteer do? If it's a family/children event we will have a table/booth/tent set up with old-fashioned games, crafts and coloring sheets. If it's an event like the Fair, Ginseng Festival, or World Culture's Day, we'll have an historical display of some kind. This volunteer mans the table/booth and helps with the activity. We have information about the historical society and upcoming events available for attendees to take with them. It is very easy and fun interacting with the community.
Please let us know if this is something you are interested in and thank you so much for your time. Our volunteers are the best!
