Fort Frederica Interpretive/Living History

Fort Frederica is looking for volunteers to support the Interpretive Rangers by staffing the visitor center and giving guided tours of the grounds to visitors both on foot and on golf carts for those with mobility issues. Volunteers who show an interest and aptitude in living history can also learn our historic trades such as blacksmithing, canoe making, candle making, and weaving. Experienced living history volunteers could eventually have the chance to partake in blackpowder demonstrations.

These Volunteers are required to work 30 hours a week to maintain their position with RV pad. Only volunteers 18 years and older may qualify for RV pad/housing unless they are accompanied by a parent/guardian.
