Summer Fun Coming Your Way!
Come Grow With Us!
The Estrella Warbirds Museum has always been known for its constant change and quality of the displays.  If you have not been to the museum in a while, there is no better time then this summer to catch up on the latest aircraft, military vehicle or automotive display that has become part of the museum since the last time you visited.

If you have a little bit of extra time on your hands and are looking for a new hobby or willing to share your knowledge or even learn something new, we are always looking for gift shop workers,  docents or volunteers in the restoration or maintenance areas.  We are all family and would like you to join us!  It's fun! There are plenty of new friends to meet and enjoyable times to be had. Contact us today!  We'd love to hear from you.

Have you thought about how you are going to spend the summer?  Here's a great idea.  Have some fun!.   Estrella Warbirds Museum is actively seeking active humans in dire need of other human interaction.  

What's your talent?
Customer Service?  We need your help in the gift shop.

Do you like sharing stories and adventures?  We need your help as a greeter or docent at the museum.  Helping  visitors find their way around. Learn a little history!  Don't worry.  Many visitors know more about specific items in the museum than most would give them credit.  Why? because they may have been part of the item's  past history.

Do you like books? Reading?  Our library is a great source of historical books and can always use another set of hands to help out during the day.

Do you like automobiles or racing history?  The Woodland Auto Display is a great place to meet people and swap stories.  Do you have a few extra hours to spend helping out?

We guarantee you will meet interesting people.  It's a great place to make life-long friends.  It's a great place to give a little back to the community in which you live.  It's a great place to be part of the fastest growing non-profit museum on the central coast.  

We want to meet you.  Kindly fill out the volunteer application form. Click on the logo above for more information.

Thank you!
