Park Forest, IL—(ENEWSPF)—March 5, 2012. The Park Forest Historical Society announces the hours of the 1950s Park Forest House Museum are now Wednesday and Saturday from 10:30 a.m. to3:30 p.m. The society needs many more volunteers to cover open hours and to open by appointment. The 1950s Park Forest House Museum, at 141 Forest Blvd, is one block north of the Park Forest Police Station, with convenient street parking in front. Long-time residents enjoy reminiscing with visitors, newer residents enjoy learning the history of this unique village and people who have lived in nearby towns enjoy sharing what they have known about the village over the years. Volunteers select which days they can serve, and how many. Each open day is divided into two shifts. Anyone interested in being trained as a docent/guide should contact Jane Nicoll, Director at 708-481-4252, or Mike Gans, President at 708-305-3308. Volunteers are also needed to publicize activities, programs and exhibits.
