Garfield Cabin Opening
6/3/2023
The James A. Garfield Birth Site and replica cabin will soon open our doors for our 23rd season. The cabin will be open Saturdays from 10:00-1:00 all summer, beginning on June 3.
We are looking for volunteers to welcome guests to the JAG cabin and provide them with basic knowledge about Garfield's early years. Our volunteer minimum time requirement is 3 hours. Student volunteers under 16 years of age must be accompanied by an adult. No experience is necessary; Training will be provided.
On June 10th we have special guest volunteer Debbie Weinkamer who has been involved with the Garfield's family story since 1998 and has done extensive research into their life and times. She is the Lead Volunteer at James A. Garfield National Historic Site in Mentor where she guides public tours, presentations, programs, and exhibits. Having an Associate in Arts and a
Bachelor of Science degree in Early Childhood Education, Debbie strives to make her
presentations engaging, meaningful, and educational for audiences of all ages.
