As with any non-profit organization, volunteerism is at the heart of GLNMM. Many have answered the call to help keep USS SILVERSIDES and USCGC McLANE afloat and to transform these two honorable vessels into the jewels of this community that they deserve to be. It would be impossible to name every person who has given their time, but the Board of Directors and staff salute each and every one of you who has helped in the past. We would not be where we are today without those who share our burden "to honor, through education and historic preservation, those who have served and are serving the naval and maritime traditions of our nation."

Where we are today, though, is charging, full speed ahead, toward our ultimate goal of a state-of-the-art museum facility befitting our museum and mission statement. As we close in on this goal, we are in need of even more volunteers. There is a task to fit every skill level and every level of physical activity. So, with the help of the young and the young-at-heart, together we can create an environment that will educate and entertain the community and world community about the men and women of "the Greatest Generation".

To join our team, please contact the administrative staff Monday-Friday, 10am-5pm, by calling (231) 755-1230 or click here to submit a volunteer form via email.
