CHEYENNE, Wyo. — Looking for a way to give back this fall? The Wyoming State Museum is seeking volunteers for its Halloween event this year.

Every year, the museum hosts a trick-or-treat event that is attended by hundreds of local families. During this event, kids wear costumes to “trick-or-treat” around the museum and meet historic Wyoming characters played by volunteers.

The role requires somewhat outgoing personalities who are comfortable acting as a character from Wyoming’s past. Those helping out will be provided a costume as well as talking points and items from the museum’s collection to show off.

The event will be from noon to 4 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 27. Volunteer shifts begin at 11 a.m. and end at 4:30 p.m. Anyone assisting the museum will get a pizza lunch at 11:30 a.m. and receive a 15-minute break during the event.

Those interested in volunteering can contact the museum’s curator of community engagement at melisa.mcchesney@wyo.gov or 307-630-2573.
