Volunteer opportunities are available to current ASNJ members who would like to get their hands dirty, help dig and look for artifacts at one of the state’s earliest colonial residences. In the event of rain, we will reschedule for April 16-17. Volunteer member opportunities are limited and subject to a first come, first-serve basis.
