FRIENDS OF VOLO BOG

History of Friends of Volo Bog

 

Friends of Volo Bog received Articles of Incorporation on January 19, 1983.  Our first Newsletter was issued in November of that year.  Mentioned in the issue was a grant awarded to Volo Bog State Natural Area and the Nature Center by the U.S. Department of Education’s Institute of Museum Services.  In order to receive the funds, the Friends had to match the total with donations, fund-raising and volunteer work.  Their fund raiser at the time was a Shop ‘N Share at the Jewel food stores.
