BECOME A VOLUNTEER
Our volunteers are a vital part of our association's success. Without their help our mission of preserving and presenting the past would be nearly impossible.
As an Old Fort Niagara volunteer you will be entitled to free admission to the fort and its programs for yourself, and discounted admission for your family and guests. You will also qualify for discounts on museum shop merchandise and Old Fort Niagara Publications.
