CHA is hosting an orientation and training session on Thursday, January 11, at 2 p.m. in the Coronado Historical Association's lecture hall for anyone interested in volunteering for the Island Icons Program This session will equip volunteers with the necessary skills and insights needed to excel in this unique role. The Island Icons program is the result of a special archival project led by CHA volunteers.

These individuals, often seniors with a wealth of life experiences, share personal memories and insights, contributing to the living history of Coronado. This project is ideally suited for individuals who are passionate about preserving history, enjoy engaging in conversations, and are comfortable writing articles within the specified word count. Whether you're an existing CHA volunteer or looking to join our community, the Island Icons program provides a unique and fulfilling opportunity to contribute to the rich tapestry of Coronado's history. If you're interested in becoming a volunteer for the Island Icons program, sign up by emailing Will Steinfield, calling 435-7242, or by RSVP'ing. Stay Connected on Social Media! Facebook & Instagram
