Dear volunteer applicant:
Thank you for your interest in volunteering at the Museum. I am excited
to announce our 2021 Fossil Explainer class, to be held from February
through April, using a blend of remote and on-site learning. If you are
interesting in applying for this class, please reply to this email with
a brief cover letter about why you would be interested in being a Fossil
Explainer. We will then schedule a quick chat over Zoom to review the
program in detail and make sure it is a good fit. Here is some
preliminary information:
* Once-weekly classes via Zoom, each Sunday from 1:00 - 3:00
* First class expected on February 7th, with sessions through the
end of April
* Additional tours and lectures offered via Zoom weekly
* Use of e-learning webpage to host resources
* Each student will have 2-3 experienced mentors to work with
* On-site practice and final walkthroughs planned for late spring if
deemed safe at that time
* Upon successful completion of the class, Fossil Explainers will be
asked to work a minimum of two 2-hour shifts per month in the fossil halls
* Explainers answer questions and interpret displays but do not give
formal hall tours
* Shifts are available weekdays from 1:00 - 5:00 and weekends from
11:00 - 5:00
