Volunteer Pilot Project

The Commission and DCR would like to begin a pilot program to allow volunteers to work

Ernestina's wheel will need to be removed for evaluation to determine the extent of deterioration and the reconstruction necessary.

on Ernestina for more than just the two major annual work days that have been held recently.  DCR will identify projects that will involve a small group of volunteers, or perhaps just one person.  For now the volunteer sessions would be held during the week.  If you have specific skills and are interested in volunteering to work on Ernestina please contact us and indicate your skills and availability.  DCR staff will be identifying projects suitable for volunteers to accomplish.  These may be one day projects or longer term tasks.

The program will be evaluated and if it is effective the Commission hopes that more opportunities for volunteers to work on the ship will be made available in the future.
