History Buff

We are looking for someone who has knowledge of the history of Uintah County and would like to share their knowledge with guests from all over the world. During the summer months, you would provide guests with the option of having a guided tour.

Not Sure Where to Start?

If all of these sound like a blast to you, each time you come in, we can switch it up! Feel free to mark down more than one option on your application. This is just a little insight into what you may be able to do here at the Museum of Uintah County.

We often have other tasks not listed for special events and other tasking. We’ve had volunteer help with all sorts of things, from the Gun & Knife Show to moving pianos!
