While the summer season has come to an end at the Fort Dauphin Museum, there is still a lot planned for the fall. Museum Manager/Curator Theresa Deyholos says they're currently preparing for a number of tours that come through town.
"The fall brings in group travelers to visit, learn, and experience the rich culture and heritage in our community. These tourists travel in their RVs from across Canada and the USA, and they stop in Dauphin to visit our museum."
Deyholos says the museum is having trouble finding volunteers to help with a number of important tasks around the museum.
"We depend on volunteers to help with a number of activities at the fort such as setting up tables, decorating for an event, maintenance and repairs, helping with games and fundraising activities, conducting tours, digitizing artifacts in our collection, and baking and other jobs in the kitchen for tours and events."
The museum will work with people who want to volunteer to ensure they're helping with something they're interested in. Anyone that wants more information, or to volunteer can call the museum at (204) 638-6630.
