From the First Nations to the early pioneers, Delta's rich history and cultural heritage is housed in the 1912 Tudor-style building on Delta Street in Ladner. Each year visitors from all around the world visit and discover Delta's story through photos, programs, collections and exhibits.
Helping to bring this history to life for today's generation of children are the docent volunteers of the Delta Museum.
Are you interested in history? Do you enjoy storytelling? Are you comfortable speaking in front of an audience? Can you engage the enthusiasm of kids? If so, become a docent at the museum and lead historically themed education programs.
The Delta Museum and Archives Society is looking for dedicated and resourceful volunteers with all sorts of talents, skills and backgrounds, who can commit to 2.5 hours per week at the museum during the school year. All necessary training is provided to help docents pass on Delta's heritage to local children.
For further information, contact the Delta Museum and Archives Society's program co-ordinator at 604946-9315, visit www.deltamuseum.ca or attend an information session at the museum annex, 4918 Delta St., on Nov. 3 at 1 p.m.
