VolunTEENS

We’re not limited to just one town or one story!

Bedminster, Bernardsville, Bernards Twp, Far Hills, Peapack & Gladstone kids all get to participate in this program. So you aren’t limited in scope to the local history of just one town. We’re the historical society of “The Somerset Hills”.

Museum Guide Volunteer
Welcome public, and answer questions about exhibits.

Public Programs and Outreach Assistant

EARN COMMUNITY SERVICE CREDIT AWARDS

Currently available to Ridge High school students, the Historical Society of the Somerset Hills will issue service credits for any approved project where there is direct involvement in a project that results in a release to the local community. THSSH will comply with all requirements necessary to manage and maintain an accredited community service credit award.

Come Join Us!

The Historical Society of the Somerset Hills has no paid staff. By contributing their talents to help with our programs and projects, scores of local volunteers, from high school students to retirees keep THSSH operating. Below is a list of current volunteer opportunities, most of which require only a limited time commitment. Training will be provided!
