The Fillmore Historical Museum will host a volunteer recruitment and orientation meeting at the museum on January 10, 2015, at 1:OO p.m. in the Southern Pacific Depot , 350 Main Street. Tours will be available at no charge to show potential volunteers the museum and discuss its history and the history of Fillmore, Piru, Sespe and Bardsdale.

The historical society is looking for volunteers to be available on a regular schedule during the week and on Saturdays and Sundays to keep the museum open during regular visiting hours. Volunteers are also needed to assist in many areas such as: writing and researching for a new book about the local area, documenting on video the oral histories of local individuals, inventorying artifacts and putting the data into the computer, re-enactment of local history for tours and school presentations, developing and presenting programs for local organizations and publicity. Also needed are volunteers to develop the gift shop and help keep the site spruced up and plants taken care of.
