The St George Children’s Museum is nearing completion and will soon open.  It has taken years of planning and development and those involved can hardly wait to introduce this wonderful new venue to the children of St George.

Volunteers are needed to make the museum a success — they may be retired professionals, educators or simply folks who love children and would like to lend a helping hand.  Volunteering at the St. George Children’s Museum promises to be a fun and unique way to help inspire the children of our community.  Volunteers will be an integral part of the museums programs and activities.  The Children’s Museum would greatly appreciate help.

 Administrative Volunteers

Help to ensure the smooth operation of daily activities through a variety of administrative duties including volunteer coordination, scheduling and tracking.

 Visitor Services

Welcome families at the door with a warm smile and give out information about the museum, its rules, activities, admission, donations, and more.

Exhibit Attendants

Engage the children in learning through play.  These happy wanderers will give exhibit guidance as needed with large helpings of fun and excitement.  They will also help to ensure the exhibits are maintained in working order throughout the day.

Store Volunteers

Assist in the operation of the SGCM store during business hours.  This includes overseeing merchandise, setting up displays, demonstrating new toys, selling products and cashier responsibilities.

Museum Docents (Guides)

Provide guidance for specific areas of the museum that require more careful supervision and interaction.

So, if you love children and are young at heart, help us make a difference in their lives. You may help to inspire them toward a life-long love of learning.  Time is rapidly approaching so if you are interested please don’t hesitate.  Applications for the above preliminary positions are now available and should be filled within the next two weeks.  Apply online by going to the following link: http://www.sgchildrensmuseum.org/donate/volunteer/ or visit the office at 86 South Main in St. George or call (435) 986-4000.

If you are looking for a great opportunity to have fun by serving your community, St George Children’s Museum would appreciate your consideration and truly hope you will join them in this wonderfully rewarding experience and the chance to have a profound impact on the lives of our communities’ children.
