Volunteer highlight: The Durham Museum
Jack, a Durham Museum volunteer, holds a photo of his grandfather conducting the same train he sits in at the museum.
The Durham Museum is full of treasures. Among the most valuable are the volunteers and the stories they tell. With some volunteers giving more than 400 hours per year, they captivate visitors with tales of Omaha history.
“People don’t want to have somebody read a script. They fall asleep. People want to be entertained,” says Jack, a Durham Museum volunteer.
