Rokeby Museum is looking for volunteer tour guides. You will introduce visitors to the four generations of the Robinson Family who lived at Rokeby from 1793–1961. They were farmers, abolitionists, and artists; Rokeby is one of the best-documented Underground Railroad sites in the country. Train one-on-one and with printed information. Guiding is a wonderful way to connect with visitors from around the country and introduce them to this very special Historic homestead. Email director@rokeby.org. Website: www.rokeby.org.
