    Description

    Keep Busy, Have Fun...on the USS Midway!

    Volunteers at the USS Midway have been known to say they feel younger when they come on board to volunteer!

    The USS Midway Museum is one of the top attractions in San Diego. Volunteers play a vital role in MAKING THE MIDWAY MAGIC! A wide range of opportunities are available in departments such as Safety, Ship Restoration, Exhibits, Tour Guides (Docents) and more! Take this opportunity to apply and learn about many unique and rewarding experiences onboard a real Aircraft Carrier.

    "...my greatest reward continues to be my interactions with our guests. What a privilege it is to educate and entertain the public, presenting the Midway and her vast collection of technology and the sailor and airman's life at sea. Magic indeed!" -Midway Volunteer
