Welcome to
The Fort at No.4

 

Welcome 2012!

2012 will be our second season fully re-opened and we are excited about the possibilities the new year brings.

--Interested in becoming a Volunteer--

BUT, to be as successful as possible, we need YOU. Volunteers are a necessary component of the fort's operation. Good-hearted souls made it possible for the fort to be open seven days a week last season, and we're hoping to be able to do that again this season. Some of the areas where we are looking for assistance:

  • school tours
  • weekend and weekday docents
  • evening docents (we are hoping to provide some evening hours while the days are long and the kids are out of school)
  • maintenance
  • gardening
  • bookstore help
  • back office help
  • and many, many more

To talk about volunteering opportunities, please send us a note at: info@fortat4.com
