Jasper Park and Rec seeking volunteers to share history

The Jasper Park and Recreation Department is seeking volunteers with a passion for history and a willingness to share information with others.

The locations with opportunities include the Alexander One-room Schoolhouse, Schaeffer Barn, and Jasper City Mill. In these various roles, volunteers are needed on weekdays for elementary school field trips and motorcoach groups, and Saturdays during Farmer’s Markets.

Volunteers lead brief educational programs, share historical information, provide demonstrations and hands-on learning activities, and host open hours for guests to explore the facilities.

If meaningful volunteer opportunities with flexible, occasional time commitments interest you, please plan to attend the Volunteer Callout Meeting, which is set for 6:00 p.m. on Monday, March 30, 2026, at the Alexander Schoolhouse. 

Parking is available in the Jasper Public Library lot.
