Love History? If you want to learn and share Poolesville History, Historic Medley District (HMD) has the perfect volunteer opportunity for you! HMD wants to open the John Poole House (JPH) during select hours on Saturdays and Sundays, especially for visitors to Locals Farm market. They need volunteer docents to staff JPH and recount the history of the building and grounds. Prior skills are not necessary, and guides do not need to be costumed.
A volunteer gardener is needed for seasonal maintenance and care of the John Poole House Boxwood/Herb Garden.
Historic Medley District formed as a nonprofit in 1974 to protect local historic buildings and landmarks. With sufficient volunteers, HMD’s three sites (Old Town Hall, Seneca Schoolhouse and John Poole House) can be open to the public during scheduled events, such as Heritage Days, Poolesville Day, HMD summer Community Picnic, the town Christmas Celebration events, and Open House dates. If you are interested in learning and passing along Poolesville history, please contact Maureen O’Connell:
