As you may be aware the Whitfield-Manjiro Friendship Society offers tours of the Whitfield-Manjiro Museum as well as the Manjiro Trail which includes eight Fairhaven locations which are part of the Manjiro story. There is an international interest in these locations where Captain Whitfield and Manjiro shared time and space.
We are currently seeking volunteer tour guides who can make their own schedule and convey this rich history to visitors from around the world. In the past 11 years we have hosted approximately 12,000 visitors. Tours are only done by prior arrangement.
If you live close enough to make it feasible and would care to investigate this position, please contact me by e-mail at gerry@wmfriendshiphouse.org or call me at the office (508-858-5303), at home (508-995-1219) or my cell phone (508-269-4659).
Our story is unique in the USA; we are anxious to share it.
