Furniture Repair and Refinishing -
We have chairs, rockers, tables and bookcases that need
spiffing up. Some projects are more intricate than others,
so we can use all skill levels.
Transcribe Old Log Books -
We've got 12 years of different people's handwriting to
decipher from 1994 to the present. You can work at home
from copies. Microsoft Word needed.
News clippers - send
us newspaper and magazine articles that mention the lighthouse
or Rose Island (include name of paper and date of publication)
Scanning photographs & articles - We've got historic
as well as recent photos, plus news articles to scan and
catalogue. This is a great opportunity to learn if you
don't already know how to use the equipment. Will train
someone who can work on a regular schedule (i.e., one afternoon
a week).
Any other things to use your skills
that we haven't thought of yet.
Of course, you can help as a Goodwill Ambassador
and Fund Raiser anytime - Tell people about us and suggest
they check out our website where they can find out more.
