Volunteers & Docents Needed for Stuart-Mosby Civil War Cavalry Museum

The is seeking individuals interested in volunteering at the museum who possess a true love for telling the story of the history of The War Between The States. and is located at 13938 Braddock Road, Centreville, Virginia 20120, in the Centreville Historic District. The museum is currently opened on Saturdays and Mondays from 10am to 4pm. But there is only one docent committed for those two days. This is grossly inadequate because sometimes the museum cannot open due to personal emergencies and other unforeseen conflicts.

Additionally, the museum needs to be open daily during the week and on Sunday. We already have two volunteers identified to open the museum on Sundays if we can only find one or more person(s) willing to join them. Anyone interested in applying as a volunteer please contact me via email or let me know your interest in the museum and what days (and hours) you may be available to serve.  The museum is an exciting new opportunity to the tell the true story of the American Civil War and of the various cavalry leaders, including General Jeb Stuart and Colonel John Singleton Mosby, who became Confederate legends for their heroic deeds performed during that sanguinary four year period.

If you are unable to volunteer, but are interested in donating money to the overall operations of the museum I wanted to remind everyone that the Stuart-Mosby Historical Society is a 501 © 3 tax deductible organization. Please send checks made out to the Stuart-Mosby Historical Society to Janet L. Greentree, 5405 Midship Court, Burke, Virginia  22015. Make sure that you indicate in the memo section of the check that the money is to be used for the Cavalry Museum.
