Join the volunteer crew at Britannia Shipyards National Historic Sites in a variety of roles and opportunities for people of all backgrounds. Volunteers are an important part of our season events and public programs.
Opportunities
Heritage Site Greeters and Wayfinders
Help welcome guests to our heritage sites with warm and friendly greetings! These volunteers help our visitors navigate our 8-acre site, and inform the public about what our site has to offer.
Dockside Volunteers
During the summer season, we occasionally open our waterfront docks to the public. Volunteers will interact with visitors and with visiting boat captains, while ensuring the public’s safety.
