These range from some muscle to setting up and taking down the train tables, decorators for the layout areas, and people helping to run the various trains. All of this is fun, relaxed easy volunteering where you will see lots of smiling faces.

Volunteer: Children's Displays Mover HelperWe need people, one or two days a year, to help rotate our displays across the Triangle. You would drive to our director's home in North Durham and then spend several hours riding in his van, helping him remove and install display cases that the children love to activate with the press of a button. Your volunteering, even for a day, helps our frugal charity save money in not having to pay a contractor to help us. Most of the time is spent being a passenger, just chatting. The work is not overly strenuous does require the ability to lift around 30 pounds for about 10 seconds. And you'll get to see lots of children enjoying the displays.
