St. Michaels, MD -- Individuals who are passionate about the Chesapeake, its history and its culture, and who like working with people are encouraged to participate in the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum's (CBMM) new volunteer and docent training on Tuesdays and Thursdays throughout March. The training will take place in the Museum's Van Lennep Auditorium from 10am to 12:30pm on March 1, 3, 8 and 10; and from 9 to 11:30am on March 15, 17, 22 and 24.
Individuals interested in volunteering as Museum docents will learn about the region's social, cultural, and environmental history. They will also develop talking points based on a particular Chesapeake interest, and learn the ins and outs of public speaking and tour guiding. Upon completion, participants will be able to present a guided general tour––the foundation experience of CBMM’s docent program.
Year-round volunteer training and workshops are provided to guide children’s programs, environmental programs, and on-going tour content classes. To register for the docent training or for more information, contact Volunteer Coordinator Diane Taylor at 410-745-4959 or email dtaylor@cbmm.org.
