Volunteers provide all types of community services and assistance. There are volunteer health care professionals, firemen, coaches for youth sports, tutors, teachers, food bank workers, grant writers and more. Just about every job skill available out in the community can be used by volunteer groups and organizations in our communities.
The San Manuel Miner will be starting a new regular feature that hopes to connect non-profit organizations, churches, schools and events with volunteers. What we are looking for from your organization is the following information:
Name of organization
Contact information
Type of volunteer(s) you are seeking
A brief description of what your volunteer will have to do
The number of hours expected from your volunteer
Any other information you feel is relevant to the volunteer position
Send your information to editor@minersunbasin.com.

Oracle Historical Society
If you’re fascinated by regional history, the Oracle Historical Society invites you to join us for a few hours on Saturdays when the Acadia Ranch Museum is open to the public. We need more volunteers to greet visitors who drop by (11 a.m. to 4 p.m.) to see the museum and its displays of historic photos, authentic exhibits, and restored rooms. We also need volunteer tour guides to take visitors “back in time” with the help of our 45-minute room-to-room script.
You’ll have a chance to expand your understanding of local history and help visitors appreciate the same. No formal training is required, just enthusiasm and commitment. The guide schedule is flexible, and even volunteering three hours a month will increase community access to this
amazing building which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
