Monday, March 13, 2017, the Board of Directors of the Fillmore Historical Museum hosted a luncheon celebrating the museum docents whose donations of their time and expertise make possible the operations and activities of the museum. Docents lead tours, do research, provide programs for organizations in the community and perform a wide variety of activities in their efforts to bring to the community an appreciation of the history of Fillmore, Piru, Sespe and Bardsdale. In 2016 these docents donated 2000 hours of their time to the museum. Also invited were individuals who have an interest in becoming a museum docent. Besides lunch the attendees heard an explanation of museum activities and were able to view the Hinckley House, Depot and Bunkhouse.
