Cobb Landmarks has been hosting successful programs for families and youth for nearly fifty years. We launched our Junior Docent volunteer program in the 1990s.
Junior Docents (ages 12-18) play a critical role in the visitor experience at the Root House Museum. Volunteers share the history of the house, garden, Root family, and life in Marietta during the 1850s.
Junior Docents develop public speaking skills, learn interpretive techniques to share local history, and serve as institutional ambassadors to the public.
