Pigeon Point Lighthouse Docent Training
Docent Training at the Pigeon Point Lighthouse
Pigeon Point Light Station State Historic Park will be hosting a training class for new volunteers in April 2018! We enjoy meeting people who are willing to commit their time and energy to the educational mission of the Park and we look forward to gathering together a new class of enthusiastic docents for our 2018 spring training program. Classes will be held April 7th, 14th, & 21st.
Upon successful completion of the docent training course, docents will:
- greet visitors from around the world
- interpret the cultural and natural history of the park, including the First Order Fresnel lens on display in the interpretive center
- help visitors spot whales and other marine wildlife from the viewing deck
- operate the park store which sells educational materials and items related to the lighthouse.
Docents are required to work at least one 7-hour shift (9:30 AM – 4:30 PM) each month. The commitment is for a minimum of one year. The minimum age requirement is 18 years old. The park is currently staffed Thursdays – Mondays; however, we are expecting to extend operational hours to 7 days/week for Summer 2018.
Light refreshments will be served but bringing a lunch is recommended.
If this sounds like a volunteer commitment you are interested in, please contact Sky Biblin at Volunteers.PigeonPoint@parks.ca.gov or call 650-879-2120 and leave a message.
